Researchers propose a new model to help explain how the level of activity in neural networks influences the flow of information.
Researchers say astrocytes play a vital role in information processing by altering neurotransmission speeds and changing the thickness of myelin.
A new study reveals a single neuron is capable of encoding information from two different sounds by switching between signals associated with one sound to that of the other.
Study could revolutionize understanding of how signal flow can be measured in the brain and could have an impact into the development of new artificial neural networks.
Researchers pay tribute to Arvid Carlsson, who was awarded the Nobel Prize for his research into dopamine, and evaluate what his research means to modern neuroscience.
Researchers have identified a link between neurotransmitter imbalance and brain connectivity in brain areas associated with social communication and language in those with ASD.
Researchers propose a new communication model to explain how brain networks can be navigated to achieve efficient information transfer.
A new study sheds light on the process of vesicle recycling
Researchers discover the FABP5 protein is key to how endocannibinoids travel from neurons to receptors.
A new optogenetics approach allows the imaging of neurotransmission without the use of electrode, researchers report.
Researchers shed light on the role Synaptotagmin 7 plays in neurotransmission in inhibitory synapses.
Researchers at Salk Institute report astrocytes initiate communication between pairs of neurons during early development, inducing specific neural changes. Findings may have implications for neurodevelopmental disorders such as ASD and ADHD.
