          Neurons On Edge: Avalanches in Brain Reveal Info Processing Secrets

          Researchers provided robust evidence supporting the controversial "critical brain hypothesis" through a project called DishBrain. This experiment, involving 800,000 human neural cells playing Pong, reveals how neurons, when informed about the surrounding environment, shift into a "neural critical" state, enabling cascades of brain activity.

          How Huntington’s Disease Affects Different Neurons

          Researchers have identified how two different populations of neurons in the striatum are affected differently in Huntington's disease. The neurodegeneration of one of these populations leads to motor defects while damage to the other population located in striosomes may account for mood disorders associated with the early stages of Huntington's.
