Researchers have released a whole-brain projectome consisting of over 6,000 single neurons in the mouse prefrontal cortex.
Using algebraic topography, researchers have created an algorithm that requires only a few examples to generate a large number of unique cells.
Study identified a complete series of ten factors that regulate the development of neurons in a fly's visual system, shedding light on the order in which these neurons develop.
Electrical synapses occur in almost every brain region and can influence the stability and function of individual neurons.
A ventral tegmental area dopamine neuron circuit that projects to the basolateral amygdala selectively controls anxiety-like behaviors, but not depression-like behaviors.
Study reveals axon density is lower than previously believed between distant regions of the brain.
A new study in mice finds microglia help neurons grow synapses critical for cognitive function.
Using an advanced microscopy technique, researchers discovered the role adhesion molecules play in guiding neurons into their correct location.
Cannabinol, an active ingredient in cannabis, can help protect brain cells from oxidative damage and preserve mitochondrial function.
Just one protein situated on the synapse can profoundly alter how some neurons communicate and implement plasticity.
A new study reveals the mechanisms by which neurons and astrocytes work together to form synapses.
Study reveals why human brains are so good at learning. The findings could help with the development of more efficient AI models.
