A new study uncovers 140 proteins that have never previously been mapped to inhibitory synapses.
New research discovers an early step in how the brain's inhibitory cells get excited. Erbin, a protein critical to brain development, is also crucial for the excitement of inhibitory cells.
Frequently, as many as one thousand signals rain down on a single neuron simultaneously. To ensure that precise signals are delivered, the brain possesses a sophisticated inhibitory system. Scientists have now illuminated how this system works.
A new study finds that the ear delivers sound information to the brain in a surprisingly organized fashion. The brain...
