Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, a new study in mice showed. These pathways appear to connect distant regions in ways that have ...

Webs of star-shaped cells called astrocytes connect distant parts of the brain, allowing long-distance exchange of molecules.

Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, according to a new ...

A new NYU Langone Health study reveals that astrocytes, long considered support cells, create organized brain-wide communication networks in mice. These astrocytic pathways connect specific brain ...

A new noninvasive neurostimulation technique capable of reaching deep regions of the brain has been used to elucidate the ...

Is brain imaging overlooking the truth? Research shows that "weak" brain connections predict behavior as well as top signals, ...

Researchers mapped brain-wide astrocyte networks that link distant regions, proving these "support cells" have their own long-range signaling system.

Glioblastoma, the most aggressive malignant brain tumor in adults, is not an isolated lesion, but a disease that destabilizes ...

A Harvard study using surgical brain disruptions finds causal evidence for a neural circuit underlying the experience of ...

The largest analysis of psychedelic brain imaging to date offers a clearer picture of how psychedelic drugs affect the brain.
