The axon initial segment (AIS) is where nerve signals begin, and its adaptability is key to brain function. Scientists have found that the AIS changes in response to activity levels, helping neurons ...
Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers have now developed a 3D-printed 'brain-like environment' ...
“There’s a huge amount of cell biology that is unclear, as it relates to neurons. I’m not a born-and-bred neurobiologist, so it’ll be a real blast to interact with these scientists to figure out ...
Researchers have developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the ... The body contains various types of nerve cells, including graded neurons that encode information through ...
Neuron, Cell Press’s prestigious neuroscience journal, is publishing a special issue on aging research on January 8, 2025. The collection of reviews and perspectives reflects the progress made ...
