Researchers from Kyushu University have developed an innovative technique to non-invasively measure two key signals, membrane voltage and intracellular calcium levels, at the same time, in neurons of ...

Signals relayed to motor neurons from the brain enable muscle movement, but these signals typically pass through spinal interneurons before they reach their destination. How the brain and this highly ...

The human brain is comprised of two main types of cells, known as neurons and glia. The first are responsible for transmitting electrical and chemical signals, while the latter support and protect ...

REM sleep energy research from Tohoku University finds that neuronal ATP falls during dreaming while blood volume and ...

Neurons carry vital signals all over our body, and the nervous system controls many crucial functions, from breathing to digestion to movement. It’s long been thought that neurons were mostly powered ...

High-resolution extracellular electrophysiology is typically used to record from neurons in order to understand brain function. Combining electrophysiology with optogenetics allows researchers to test ...

Research led by Lancaster University has revealed clear evidence that changes in the orchestration of brain oxygenation dynamics and neuronal function in Alzheimer's disease contribute to the ...

Neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and motor neuron disease (MND, including amyotrophic lateral ...

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning systems has increased the demand for new hardware components that could speed up data analysis while consuming less power. As ...

A new study has offered clues to the neurological mechanisms behind long COVID — the condition in which patients experience fatigue, sleep disorders, difficult ...
