This study overall shows there is an interplay between the BBB and CB1 receptors on perivascular astrocytes that influences chronic stress resilience.

For years, BAMs were hidden in plain sight, often mistaken for other immune cells. That changed with new tools like fate mapping (tracks a cell’s developmental origin) and single-cell RNA sequencing, ...

Synaptic plasticity is the ability of neurons to make changes in their connections in response to how frequently those connections are used. i.e. either ...

Cells that have the ability to turn into several different cell types. They are more mature than stem cells and normally are limited to differentiating into cell types of only one type of tissue. i.e.

A form of DNA modification in which methyl groups (A small molecule made of one carbon and three hydrogen atoms) are added to DNA. This type of marking ...

Snap! Crackle! Pop! Those are the sounds that Professors David Hubel and Torsten Wiesel heard in the early 1950s when they recorded from neurons in the visual cortex of a cat, as they moved a bright ...

Neurodegenerative disease where dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra deteriorate. Symptoms involve resting tremor, slowness of movement, shuffling gait, rigidity. Kate graduated from Scripps ...

Because complex patterns of brain activity are thought to underlie flexible behavior and cognition, the ratio between excitation and inhibition — referred to as E/I balance — is becoming increasingly ...
