It's Literally Killing Your Dreams

Researchers in Japan have demonstrated low-invasive neural recording technology for the brain tissue of diabetic mice, an advance with positive implications for future brain-machine interfaces.

How animals recognize themselves visually is rarely studied and is poorly understood. But new research has revealed that mice demonstrate a form of self-recognition known as mirror-stimulated self-directed actions.

In this article, Sartorius demonstrates how they can characterize astrocyte models through live-cell analysis.

Here, Bruker investigates the role of microglial cells in tuning neuronal activity using multiphoton microscopy

Artificial light at night (ALAN) has become a worldwide concern, with the American Medical Association declaring it a form of pollution. Birds’ daily physiology and behavior are disrupted by ALAN exposure, and nighttime melatonin synthesis is suppressed. This article will summarize a recent study pu

Ketamine increases the activity of newborn neurons. This information may allow drug design that targets a group of cells.
