Researchers have discovered that removal of cilia from the brain's striatum region impaired time perception and judgment, revealing possible new therapeutic targets for mental and neurological ...

A new study provides insight on how the brain processes external input such as touch, vision or sound from different sources and sides of the body, in order to select and generate adequate movements.

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have mapped how different nerve cells in the brain area striatum process information to plan and execute our movements at just the right time and with the right ...

A rare group of cells buried deep in the brain has the power to make or break your habits. Fast-spiking interneurons, shown here in purple, in the dorsolateral striatum in mice, act as a key signaling ...
