A study led by Dr. Rodrigo Quian Quiroga, group leader of the Neural Mechanisms of Perception and Memory Research Group at the Hospital del Mar Research Institute, has allowed scientists to observe ...

By contrast, glial cells seemed to be electrically silent and were dismissed as dull by most researchers. Some glia, called ...

An international team led by the University of Michigan has introduced new methods that reveal which regions of the brain ...

Neural circuits produce electrical patterns very early in the brain's development process, even before senses are active.

Researchers are no longer just simulating brains in silicon, they are wiring living human neurons into machines and asking ...

The links between neurons are crucial to the brain, and brain cells can reorganize they way they are linked together in a ...

The same brain cells linked to disorientation in Alzheimer's disease have been preserved—and even slightly increased—across ...

TL;DR: Scientists at the National University of Singapore have developed a silicon transistor that mimics biological neurons and synapses, offering a scalable and energy-efficient solution for ...

A high-speed “zap-and-freeze” method is giving scientists their clearest view yet of how brain cells send messages. By ...
