Researchers are sifting through millions of antibodies produced by those who have recovered from COVID-19 to find which ones neutralize the virus. The team has already identified several antibodies that block coronavirus from interacting with its receptors.
Researchers have recorded the activity of thousands of neurons layered within three-dimensional sections of brain as they signaled to one another in a living mouse.
While the overall memories of an experience are stored in the hippocampus, individual details are parsed and stored in the prefrontal cortex.
