Researchers identify a neural circuit in the lateral hypothalamus that suppresses itch during acute stress, offering new insights into chronic itch management.

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have mapped a neural circuit in the brain involved in the complex relationship between itch and stress. Their findings, published in Cell Reports, ...

A recent publication in the journal Cell discusses the processes and changes in the brain that arise while fighting and watching intense fights. Study: To see is to experience: Aggression neurons ...

It’s not just in your legs. Scientists have discovered a "fitness switch" in the brain that must be flipped after a workout for your body to actually build endurance.

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science have identified a neural circuit in the brain that is involved in the complex relationship between stress and itching. This was reported by Medical ...

Exercise does more than strengthen muscles; it also rewires the brain. In a study published in Neuron, researchers reveal ...

The work reveals that the brain — in mice and, presumably, in humans — is actively involved in the development of endurance, the ability to get better at a physical activity with repeated practice, ...

Researchers have developed a new type of pipette that can deliver ions to individual neurons without affecting the sensitive extracellular milieu. Controlling the concentration of different ions can ...
