Adolescence is widely thought to be a time when the brain trims away excess neural connections, refining circuits through synaptic pruning. New research now suggests this view may be incomplete.

Researchers discovered that the liver hormone FGF21 signals hindbrain neurons to control appetite and metabolism during ...

A new study demonstrated a brain-computer interface technology that enables spinal cord injury patients to walk with a ...

A cross-disciplinary team led by Prof. Qu Jianan from the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering and Prof. Julie L ...

A high-resolution brain interface records movement signals from the brain's surface, enabling real-time control performance similar to invasive implants without entering brain tissue. (Nanowerk ...

Incomplete spinal cord injuries disrupt motor unit coordination. The nervous system struggles to sync muscles at low effort and overcompensates with rigid signals at high effort.

Whether speaking or swinging a bat, precise and adaptable timing of movement is essential for everyday behavior. Although we do not have sensory organs like eyes or a nose to sense time, we can keep ...

Restoring both walking and sensation to patients with paraplegia is an ambitious goal—but a team of researchers from the Keck ...
