Every day, our brain makes thousands of decisions, big and small. Any of these decisions—from the least consequential, such ...

Researchers have mapped over 70,000 synaptic connections in rat neurons using a silicon chip with 4,096 microhole electrodes, significantly advancing neuronal recording technology.

Harvard researchers have mapped and catalogued more than 70,000 synaptic connections from about 2,000 rat neurons, using a silicon chip capable of recording small yet telltale synaptic signals from a ...

If you've been having trouble with any of the connections or words in Tuesday's puzzle, you're not alone and these hints should definitely help you out. Plus, I'll reveal the answers further down.

might actually be essential for how the brain performs critical computations like memory," she says. Specifically, noise appears to increase the amount of time it takes for inhibitory neuron ...

This approach allowed for precise, real-time mapping of neuronal activity and structural changes in the brain. The study revealed that glioma-associated neurons lose critical synaptic connections ...

Johanna Jackson studied several conditions, including epilepsy and brain injury, before focusing on Alzheimer’s disease. The constant throughout her career is an interest in synapses – the small ...

Pain is an example of an important sensory neuron. When you feel pain from a hot pan or a sharp pin, you are sending sensory information via sensory neurons up to the brain. The flow of electrical ...
