Exercise and the Non-Neuronal Brain

Exercise undoubtedly has beneficial effects on neurons. But over 50 percent of the brain is non-neuronal. What effect does exercise have on some of these cells and structures?

Artificial Syncing and the Role of Myelin in Learning

A new study shows how abnormal myelin affects neurons during learning. The research also opens the door for artificial synchronization as a therapy to reduce the deficit.

New Discoveries About Myelin That Have Changed Neuroscience

Centuries of myelin research had us thinking we knew everything we needed to know about myelin. New work is showing it still has plenty of secrets to tell.
