··5 min readResearchers have identified a circuit in the brains of fruit flies, which enables them to see in color. The network is similar to that which allows human color vision. The findings could help in the development of AI technologies. Read More
Critical aspects of hippocampal function can be reversed in old age, or compensated for throughout life, with the help of neural stem cells. Read More
Criticality in the brain was linked to inhibitory neurons imposing and organizing the computational dynamics. Read More
Neurons in the pre-supplementary motor area play a critical role in visual search. Read More
Inhibitory inputs to the neural circuit between the dorsolateral bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (dlBNST) to the ventral tegmental area (VTA) increase when a person is in chronic pain. This alteration is mediated by enhanced corticotropin-releasing factor signaling within the dlBNST, leading to suppression of the mesolimbic dopaminergic system. The result is depressive mood and anhedonia associated with chronic pain. Read More
Researchers distinguish between four distinct classes of neurons based on their spiking information. Read More
Amidst noise and chaos, cortical neurons work in a team to communicate and allow the brain to find order. Read More
When a neuron receives information, dendrites functionally work together to adjust for the complexity of the input. Read More
