A new study in mice published in The Journal of Neuroscience details a potential therapeutic strategy that uses stem cells to promote recovery of motor activity after spinal cord injury.

Testosterone controls specific features of birdsong in two distinct regions of the canary brain that resemble the human motor cortex.

A study in eNeuro shows that, when remembering a sequence of events, the brain focuses on the event paid the least attention, rather than replaying the events in the order they occurred. This finding suggests that attention during the initial encoding of a memory influences how information is manipulated in working memory.

Structural connections between frontal and parietal areas in children’s brains can predict their ability to reason later in life, reports new research published in The Journal of Neuroscience.
