A new study reveals the role basket cells play in navigation.
Amyloid beta has been implicated in blocking endocannabinoids in the hippocampus; impairing learning and memory long before Alzheimer's plaques form in the brain.
Pyramidal cells in the CA2 region of the hippocampus are responsible for storing critical timing information.
Researchers have identified alterations in neural circuitry that impact cerebral cortex pathology. These alterations could be key to cognitive deficits in Down syndrome.
Researchers have created detailed 3D models of pyramidal cells from the neocortex using anatomical data from human cells.
A discovery about pyramidal neurons in the CA3 area of the hippocampus could help researchers develop new treatments for Alzheimer's disease and other age related memory loss problems.
A new study reports somatostatin neurons regulate synaptic activity in the neocortex.
Researchers have developed a new method to identify and monitor the activity of 'quiet' neurons.
Researchers track real time brain activity in mice to gain better insight into how the brain stores and organizes information.
Researchers report FLRT proteins guide precursors of pyramidal cells during neurodevelopment.
Researchers report the contact points between specific neuron types are clustered in groups on the target neuron.
Researchers have produced a detailed map of cortical cells types and gene activity within them. They also report identifying a number of previously unknown cell types.
