Electrophysiology
Electrophysiology research articles can cover research involving whole cell patch-clamp recordings, voltage clamping, current clamping, multielectrode arrays, EEG, brain machine interfaces, field potentials, neural prosthetics, deep brain stimulation, synaptic plasticity and other work.
Researchers report the protein FABP5, usually associated with diseases such as cancer and psoriasis, enhances cognitive function. Read More
Neurobiology research from UCLA indicates the possibility of GABA interfering with working memory in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1, or NF1. Read More
Researchers are using a variety of techniques to better understand how the brain 'wires up'. Read More
Researchers delve into the details of molecular interactions which help guide neurons towards their anatomical boundaries. Read More
Common green apple flavorant farnesene enhances nicotine reward in mouse models. The flavorant is also rewarding on its own. Researchers say with or without nicotine, flavored vapes, especially those containing farnesene, pose potential neurological risks, including addiction. Read More
Glioma brain tumors alter the function of astrocytes, possibly contributing to seizures many brain cancer patients experience. Astrocytes encasing gliomas exhibit different molecular signatures based on their proximity to the cancer cells. Those directly touching the cancer cells become elongated and swollen, mimicking the astrocyte's response to other epilepsy-related brain injuries. Read More
Bioelectrical signals among cells instructs and controls embryonic brain development, a new study reports. Read More
Researchers report miniature neurotransmission appears to play a key role in synaptic development. Read More
A new study finds that the ear delivers sound information to the brain in a surprisingly organized fashion. The brain... Read More
UCLA researchers have for the first time measured the activity of a brain region known to be involved in learning, memory and Alzheimer's disease during sleep. They discovered that the entorhinal cortex behaves as if it's remembering something, even under anesthesia, a finding that counters conventional theories about memory consolidation during sleep.
