They then recorded the activity of neurons in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), the part of the thalamus that relays ...

A new study reveals that the thalamus, long overshadowed by the cortex and hippocampus, plays a crucial role in shaping and ...

Beijing Normal University-led researchers have identified specific high-order thalamic nuclei that drive human conscious ...

Researchers have recreated the human ascending sensory pathway in a lab dish, using organoids that model the key brain and ...

Scientists develop lab-grown model of the human sensory pathway to investigate how pain signals are transmitted to the brain.

Neurons encoding behavioral states received significantly fewer inputs from motor cortical areas and more from thalamic ...

For the first time, scientists have generated a functional neural pathway for sensing pain in a dish. This could help unravel ...

This valuable study shows that locomotion-related modulations in the mouse visual cortex are not uniform but primarily affect neurons in muscarinic receptor-negative patches, which receive projections ...

They then recorded the activity of neurons in the lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN), the part of the thalamus that relays visual information to the visual cortex. The recordings showed that cell ...
