Nerve cells have amazing strategies to save energy and still perform the most important of their tasks. Researchers from the ...

Researchers at FORTH have developed a new type of artificial neural network (ANN) that incorporates features of biological ...

Neurons may get all the glory, but they would be nothing without glial cells. While brain cells do the heavy ... like cilia that extend out of nematode dendrites, so that the glial cells can ...

Summary: New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances. Scientists discovered that dendrites, the branch-like extensions of ...

Nerve cells have amazing strategies to save energy and still perform the most important of their tasks. Researchers found that the neuronal energy conservation program determines the location and ...

The model calculations in the present study show that proteins are therefore preferably synthesized in the branched, tapering ...

The research, published Jan. 28 in Science Immunology, shows that these specialized Tregs not only control access to the inner regions of the brain but also ensure the proper renewal of nerve cells in ...

Nerve cells take in information through the body’s senses: touch, taste, smell, sight, and sound. The brain interprets these ... antennae-like part called the dendrite, and send signals to ...
