An immune-related gene has now been tied to a rare inherited neurological disorder, revealing an overlooked pathway in the nervous system.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, often debilitating autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system (CNS).

The biofield, mediated by light known as biophotons, could be the missing piece of the consciousness puzzle.

Researchers have identified a previously overlooked neural pathway that helps control human hand and arm movements. The ...

Neuronal pathways originating from the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) of the brain participate in different adaptive behaviors, but which pathways are used for distinct adaptive strategies remains unclear ...

Tufts University School of Medicine researchers developed imaging technology that records neuronal activity throughout the brain during the first weeks of recovery. They discovered that a head injury ...

Stanford Medicine investigators have replicated, in a lab dish, one of the most prominent human nervous pathways for sensing pain. This nerve circuit transmits sensations from the body’s skin to the ...

We become forgetful as we age. This is often seen as a universal truth, but in fact it is far from universal: some people remain incredibly sharp at 100 years old, while others experience memory loss ...

A new study using mouse models and multi-omics analysis has traced a specific nerve pathway through which prenatal stress programs fetal skin cells for eczema-like inflammation after birth. The ...
