By analyzing alterations in waveform recorded from neurons during a heartbeat, researchers can more accurately classify different types of neurons in the human brain.
Computational power is amplified in the brain by newly discovered action potentials in dendrites.
A new study reveals a single neuron is capable of encoding information from two different sounds by switching between signals associated with one sound to that of the other.
Researchers report altering synaptic plasticity leads to a computational switch in a hippocampal synapse which turns the presynaptic neuron turns into “detonator” mode, causing it to fire more readily.
Researchers link symptoms of difficulty in understanding speech in noisy environments with hidden hearing loss in college aged people.
Researchers have optimized optical and electrophysiological recordings from single neurons to study axonal excitability with unprecedented detail.
A new study reports researchers have discovered a critical molecule that regulates synaptic transmission.
Researchers have devised a new technique which allows them to observe the details of neurons at work in real time.
A new study reports AIS plasticity happens quickly, influencing the way cells fire action potentials.
A new study sheds light onto the role astrocytes play in neurodevelopment.
New findings about how water enters neurons could help pave the way for the development of new therapies to treat edema.
Researchers create a fully functional neuron using organic bioelectronics. The artificial neuron is able to mimic the function of human neurons.
