Non-myelinated neurons transmit electrical signals more slowly than the myelinated nerves in the body. Most neurons that carry signals regarding movement and higher-level functions, such as ...

In order to instantly facilitate these bodily processes, highly specialized sensory and motor neurons (as well as interneurons) are used to transmit these signals and coordinate the way your body ...

19, 2024 in the journal Optica, researchers used a graded neuron system to surpass spiking neurons' speed limit. Much like a biological graded or "non-spiking" neuron, the laser-based system ...

Since neurons vary in size across species, the question arises whether propagation speed also varies to compensate for it. The present article compares numerous speed-related properties in human and ...

Speed is an essential component of finding the most cost-efficient internet plan. You may not need all of the speed you're paying for, but on the flip side, you may not be getting enough.

A clear picture of how neuroplasticity and glial plasticity result in brain organ failure through a complex interaction between neurons, synapses, and non-neuronal cell function is only now emerging.

Together, Watanabe and Knott began studying the relationship between form and function in unmyelinated axons, which tend to exhibit more irregular shapes compared to the consistent cylindrical ...
