Researchers probe neural processes involved in ADHD.

A grant that’s more than funding but fostering a new line of research.

Using light to control the activity of a specific group of nerve cells, OIST researchers have revealed a possible brain mechanism for responding to surprising or important cues

OIST researchers identify the neurons that help adapt to changing environments

OIST researchers are developing a new drug delivery method using femtosecond lasers that allow tight control of drug release.

Using a technique to manipulate neuronal cell behavior, the Neurobiology Research Unit was able to show a behavior was dictated by a specific group of neurons.

The Human Frontiers Science Program (HFSP) announced Monday that a team that includes OIST’s Jeff Wickens has been awarded a three-year Program Grant.
