Cellular changes associated with Parkinson's disease could be revealed with the use of quantitative MRI which allows for a deeper examination of microstructures within the striatum.
Findings could advance the development of deep learning networks based on real neurons that will enable them to perform more complex and more efficient learning processes.
A new study reveals the role the claustrum plays in cocaine addiction. Inhibiting claustral neurons prevented behavioral responses to cocaine in mouse models of addiction.
The Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine, commonly used to innoculate against tuberculosis and as a bladder cancer treatment, also appears to reduce the development of Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers have created detailed 3D models of pyramidal cells from the neocortex using anatomical data from human cells.
