How the distinctive folds in the brain cortex, seen in humans, whales, other animals, form
One of the defining features of humans is our brain's remarkable capacity for language, planning, memory, creativity, and more. These abilities stem not just from our large brain size, but also from ...

Cerebral cortex synapses transmit signals more reliably than those in rear brain regions
Researchers at Leipzig University's Carl Ludwig Institute have discovered that in the cerebral cortex, synaptic signal transmission between brain cells functions very reliably even at low ...
A new MIT study finds that somatostatin-expressing neurons follow a unique trajectory when forming connections in the brain’s ...
The microscopic image shows a nerve cell and a magnified view of the investigated synapses. Calcium was released at these sites using a UV flash, which triggered the release of the neurotransmitter.
