In a study published in Nature Human Behaviour on Oct. 9, researchers led by Profs. TU Yiheng and HU Li from the Institute of Psychology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have uncovered a neural ...

A new study reports a potential neurological link between adverse experiences in childhood and the negative thinking patterns characteristic of mood disorders. Researchers found that a specific ...

Quick-acting targeted therapies with minimal side effects are an urgent need for the treatment of anxiety-related disorders. While delta opioid receptor (DOP) agonists have shown 'anxiolytic' or ...

Neural circuits associated with three cortical regions in cognitive generalization with different manifestations from different species. (A) Emotionrelated brain regions mainly project to PFC and OFC; ...

A new study published in The Journal of Neuroscience has found that aggression can spread socially among mice, but only when there is a pre-existing bond between the observer and the aggressor.

When engineers build AI language models like GPT-5 from training data, at least two major processing features emerge: memorization (reciting exact text they’ve seen before, like famous quotes or ...

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 ...

Stroke and spinal cord injuries can severely impair motor functions, and understanding how to promote recovery is a critical challenge. While damaged neurons in the brain and spinal cord have limited ...

A newly mapped neural circuit shows how our skin senses cool temperatures and sends that info to the brain, revealing an unexpected amplifier in the spinal cord and offering insight into cold-related ...
