This study illustrates the spatiotemporal dynamics of neuron subtype changes within the entorhinal cortex–hippocampal circuit during Alzheimer’s disease progression. EC-stellate neurons progressively ...

Researchers found that mental representations known as cognitive maps, located in the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex, are activated when the brain performs mental simulations of a navigational ...

Brain iron measured by quantitative susceptibility mapping MRI predicted cognitive decline in healthy older adults. Higher magnetic susceptibility in two brain regions was tied to a higher risk of ...

Researchers have discovered a mechanism that creates memories while reducing metabolic cost, even during sleep. This efficient memory occurs in a part of the brain that is crucial for learning and ...

Single-cell transcriptomics aficionados have raised the bar again. In a study published in Nature on July 24, scientists led by Li-Huei Tsai and Manolis Kellis at Massachusetts Institute of Technology ...

Academia Sinica on Monday hosted Nobel laureate Edvard I. Moser, who delivered a lecture explaining how the brain functions like a dynamic GPS system for navigation and memory, per CNA. The lecture, ...
