Scientists have created a new way to map how brain cells connect by assigning each neuron a unique molecular “barcode.” Using this approach, they were able to trace connections among thousands of ...

Brain fog is the result of “bad connections” between the gut and the brain, said Gerard Clarke, a professor of ...

New research reveals coffee’s hidden effects on the gut-brain connection, influencing mood, memory, microbes, and overall ...

They also zoomed in on a key enzyme called ACLY. Think of it as a middleman that helps convert glucose into a form cells can use to grow and divide. By disrupting this enzyme, researchers could see ...

For example, a team at Caltech has identified two distinct types of neurons in the abdomens of mice that appear to control different aspects of digestion. The finding, reported in the journal Nature, ...

Brain cells are increasingly being found outside the brain, and now researchers have identified specific neurons in the abdomen that control some aspects of digestion. Not all brain cells are found in ...

Neuroscientists are uncovering the brain’s intricate wiring, from thalamic hubs to hippocampal bridges, revealing how these circuits shape memory, perception, and emotion. Using advanced imaging, ...
