For almost a century, budding neuroscientists have been taught that the headband-like strip of brain tissue over our ears ...

A research team has revealed that a molecule in the brain -- ophthalmic acid -- unexpectedly acts like a neurotransmitter similar to dopamine in regulating motor function, offering a new therapeutic ...

Acupuncture shows promise for stroke recovery, promoting neuroplasticity and motor function improvements, according to ...

A new study found that the leading environmental factor influencing brain structure and function is the socioeconomic status ...

Scientists traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord to control motor function. Signals relayed to motor neurons from the brain enable muscle ...
