A research team led by scientists at Columbia’s Zuckerman Institute used techniques including single cell genomics, to describe a previously undetected RNA-mediated mechanism in mice that could ...

We found that STFP memory formation is mediated by the parallel transfer of social information from the accessory olfactory bulb directly to the COApm, and of olfactory information from the main ...

To enjoy the scent of morning coffee and freshly baked cookies or to perceive the warning smell of something burning, the brain needs two types of cells, neurons and astrocytes, to work closely with ...
