A study tracking thousands of neurons shows how the brain separates memory content from context to support flexible recall.

A new study shows that the human brain stores what we remember and the context in which it happens using different neurons.

Is there a difference in brain structure between men and women? If we were to find such a difference in a single neuron, would it matter? One of the most useful models for studying these questions is ...
