Place cells are neurons in the brain’s memory center, the hippocampus, that help the brain keep track of the body’s location in space. Arrays of these cells form a cognitive map, firing off electrical ...

Bioengineers have developed a noninvasive tool to measure gene expression and gene therapy delivery in specific brain regions using ultrasound. Bioengineers have developed a noninvasive tool to ...

For the first time, a new ultrasound technique allows researchers to stimulate multiple locations in the brain simultaneously. This opens up new possibilities for treating devastating brain diseases ...

A research team led by a three-time recipient of BBRF grants has successfully tested a method of using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a non-invasive method of brain stimulation, to activate ...

New maps show the precise location of millions of oligodendrocytes in the mouse brain over its lifespan. Johns Hopkins (MD, USA) scientists say they have used 3D imaging, special microscopes and ...
