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.
According to researchers, the entorhinal cortex can replay memories of movement without hippocampal input.
Synaptotagmin 2 is the major calcium sensor in GABAergic synapses, a new study reports.
Researchers have identified a gene that plays a vital role in the production of neurons and glial cells in the brain.
Researchers shed light on the role Synaptotagmin 7 plays in neurotransmission in inhibitory synapses.
A new study reveals hippocampal place cells randomly replay firing patterns during sleep, helping the brain to consolidate movement memories.
Researchers have identified a signaling pathway in the hippocampus that plays a critical role in creates novel memories about new environments.
Study reveals how the autism-associated Cullin 3 gene affects brain development in mouse models.
Ketamine and exposure to 60-hertz flickering light show promise as a potentially new, non-invasive therapy to help rejuvenate the aging brain.
