Researchers knew that a brain region called the amygdala represents flavors and decides whether or not they’re gross. Palmiter’s group had also shown that the gut tells the brain it’s ...

Most scientists agree that categorizing an object—like thinking of a carrot as either a root vegetable or a party snack—is the job of the prefrontal cortex, the brain region responsible for ...

neurogenesis modulates the cellular profile in the entorhinal cortex and CA regions of the hippocampus. Notably, enhancing neurogenesis in FAD mice led to partial restoration of neuronal and cellular ...

scientists at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston began by using specialized microscopes to record the brain activity in a 1-cubic-millimeter portion of tissue in a lab mouse’s visual cortex ...
