Autistic adults show reduced availability of a key glutamate receptor, mGlu5, across widespread brain regions.

To study how a key chemical neuromodulator affects signaling in the brain's cortex, Garrett Neske, PhD, has received a three-year, $300,000 grant from the Whitehall Foundation, a nonprofit ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual ...

A new ‘biomimetic’ model of brain circuits and function at multiple scales produced naturalistic dynamics and learning, and ...

Scientists developed two new sensors that can detect brain cell communication in real time, tracking chemical messages ...

This study presents SynaptoGen, a differentiable extension of connectome models that links gene expression, protein-protein interaction probabilities, synaptic multiplicity, and synaptic weights, and ...

A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...

A recent study finds that certain psychiatric disorders have considerable genetic overlap. But these genes aren’t the whole ...
