OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) - You can hear cold and flu season: people coughing, sneezing, the phone ringing as people call in sick. Health care officials say respiratory illnesses in our area are spiking. The ...

The nervous system does an astonishing job of tracking sensory information, and does so using signals that would drive many computer scientists insane: a noisy stream of activity spikes that may be ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By tracking glutamate in real time, scientists can finally see how neurons process ...

Spending on children's behavioral health accounted for 40% of all medical expenditures, according to 2022 data, nearly doubling since 2011, local researchers said. Pediatric behavioral health ...

(Nanowerk News) Our brains are masters of efficiency. “Biology is very energy optimized,” says Yevgeny Berdichevsky, an associate professor of bioengineering and electrical and computer engineering at ...

A critical function performed by visual systems is the fast and reliable detection of features within the environment, such as moving objects or approaching threats. Neurons predicted to encode these ...
