          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.

          The Molecular Logic Behind Neuron Diversity

          Researchers uncovered how distinct neuron types in the Drosophila fruit fly differentiate their functions despite originating from a similar genetic framework. In the study, two closely related neuronal subtypes expressed more than 800 different genes (~5% of the fly genome) differently.

          Neural Number Crunching: Why Mammal Brains Favor Lognormal Patterns

          New research delves into how the statistical distributions of neuron densities shape mammalian brains. The study analyzed seven species, discovering that neuron densities follow a lognormal distribution - a fundamental organizational principle.

          “A New Way Biology Works”: Neuronal Signaling Can be Modified by Mirror-Image Molecules

          Researchers discovered that the orientation of a single amino acid in a sea slug can determine which neuron receptor is activated, leading to different types of neuronal activities. This finding sheds light on how the brain can regulate communication between cells in different ways.

          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.
