Research in primate brains has been essential for the development of brain-computer interfaces and artificial neural networks. New funding and policy changes put the future of such advances at risk.

Called U.S. Public Research Benefits, the database showcases the value of basic science in an easy and accessible format.

Eight researchers explain how they are using large language models to analyze the literature, brainstorm hypotheses and interact with complex datasets.

Adopting an engineering mindset will help the field focus its research priorities.

The findings add fuel to the long-running debate over how an imbalance in excitatory and inhibitory signaling contributes to the autism.

With lower-than-average article processing fees, and issues dedicated to topics important to the continent, the journal hopes to give African neuroscience research much-needed international visibility.

Bifurcations—an underexplored concept in neuroscience—can help explain how small differences in neural circuits give rise to entirely novel functions.

The biochemist, who died last month at age 92, was part of the first neurobiology department in the world and showed that gamma-aminobutyric acid is inhibitory.

Human-specific duplicates of SRGAP2 prolong cortical development by manipulating SYNGAP, an autism-linked protein that slows synaptic growth.

Nociceptors tamp down the production of reactive oxygen species in response to heat, chemical irritants or toxins.
