Tiny electronic chips that can be threaded into the brain through a needle instead of a scalpel are moving from speculative concept to early reality. Researchers are now testing injectable implants ...

A new study from CSHL’s Furukawa lab, published in Nature, reveals the molecular mechanisms that keep the brain’s NMDA receptors fully or partially open. As information zings from cell to cell inside ...

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

Humans have long wondered when and how we begin to form thoughts. Are we born with a pre-configured brain, or do thought patterns only begin to emerge in response to our sensory experiences of the ...

A more precise and personalized form of electric brain stimulation may be a more effective and faster treatment for people with moderate to major depression compared to other similar treatments, ...

Neurosurgeons and engineers at the University of Washington School of Medicine reached a milestone this summer, implanting a device inside the skull of a stroke victim that they believe can help him ...
