To think, feel, talk and move, neurons send messages through electrical signals in the brain and spinal cord. This intricate ...

A new study, recently published in the journal Nature Communications, is leading to a new understanding of how immune cells ...

I still vividly remember the first time we observed neurons responding not to audible sound, but to concentrated, precisely ...

Every movement you make and every memory you form depends on precise communication between neurons. When that communication is disrupted, the brain must rapidly rebalance its internal signaling to ...

To think, feel, talk and move, neurons send messages through electrical signals in the brain and spinal cord. This intricate communication network is built of billions of neurons connected by synapses ...

WASHINGTON – A new finding from researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center shows that the learning process of associating cues with rewards can be altered by increased or decreased activity ...

New experiments reveal how astrocytes tune neuronal activity to modulate our mental and emotional states. The results suggest ...

The human brain contains nearly 86 billion neurons, constantly exchanging messages like an immense social media network, but neurons do not work alone – glial cells, neurotransmitters, receptors, and ...

Biocomputing research is testing living neurons for computation as scientists look for energy-efficient alternatives to ...

New memristor-based artificial neurons emit light to enable denser, more efficient 3D AI chips, pointing to a future beyond ...
