How can we characterize the dynamics of neural networks with recurrent connections? How do the time-varying activities of populations of neurons represent things? How are synapse strengths ...

Guo-Xing Miao, Professor at the University of Waterloo, guides us through programmable iontronic neural networks ...

A study from Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz found that fruit flies raised at lower temperatures develop more neural ...

“These experiments suggest they don’t need to. They just grow and synapse with anything, providing they grow in the right direction and the right broad path of the nervous system.” “The enormous ...

This study presents useful findings on the differences between male and hermaphrodite C. elegans connectomes and how they may result in changes in locomotory behavioural outputs. However, the study ...

Assuming each neuron has an average of 35 connections, that means our minds have at least 3,010,000,000 synapse connections. Even with just 2,000 neural cells, this is already a huge quantity of ...

Using eMAP researchers labeled protein components on both the presynaptic side (bassoon) and post-synaptic side (PSD-95) of an excitatory synapse in a mouse. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert!

Geckos injected with neural stem cells modified to block cartilage growth developed the skeletal ... appears to influence neuronal development—a finding that could shed light on disorders such as ...
