New research has shown that our perception of what others do depends on what we expect to happen more so than previously thought.

A small molecule drug, one of 27 million screened in a library of potential new drugs, has shown promise as a painkiller, outperforming gabapentin for treating four types of chronic pain.

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet, Sweden have uncovered the molecular logic underpinning the assembly of spinal circuits that control the speed of locomotion in adult zebrafish.

To drive their growth, many tumors hijack nervous system signals, including those needed for brain plasticity. Stanford Medicine discoveries are opening a promising new branch of oncology research.

A new study finds that neural signaling during online exchanges is substantially suppressed compared to activity in face-to-face conversations.

A special brain-wave cap can diagnose small and large ischemic strokes in the ambulance, allowing the patient to receive appropriate treatment faster.

Sleep is not a state in which we are completely isolated from our environment: while we sleep, we are capable of hearing and understanding words, observes a new study.

Separating out the complex web of neural regions controlling precise muscle movement in the mouth, jaw and tongue with the regions processing the auditory feedback of hearing your own voice is a complex problem.

In a new study, a rapid- and short-acting investigational medication formulated to be delivered via nasal spray, restored a normal heart rhythm in less than 30 minutes in most users with intermittent rapid heartbeats.
