In recent years, mice have entered a new arena – virtual reality – and now Cornell University researchers have built mini VR headsets to more fully immerse them. The team's MouseGoggles were created ...

Microscopy image of the mouse hippocampi showing, in green, neuronal connections that act as a “bridge” between both hemispheres. These projections originate from neurons in the right CA1 region and ...

A new Nature Communications study reveals that mouse hippocampal CA3 circuits start life as dense, randomly connected networks before shedding many synapses to form sparse, organized structures suited ...

Nearly 50 years ago, neuroscientists discovered cells within the brain's hippocampus that store memories of specific locations. These cells also play an important role in storing memories of events, ...

Applying single-cell RNA sequencing has led researchers to be able to profile the entire transcriptome of cells. However, these transcriptomes prove difficult to link back to their original location ...
