The team led by Associate Professor Mario Lanza from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering in the College of ...

They are the most common neuron found in mammalian bodies. Neuron Function Synapses Neural synapses are junctions between neurons that permit neural communication. Synapses come in two different forms ...

Silent synapses are dormant neural connections that hold untapped brain potential. Discover how ketamine, exercise, and other ...

Mice that were given the stable derivative had boosts in memory, more neuron synapses, reduced inflammation, and more removal ...

The build-up of proteins associated with Alzheimer's were reduced by a plant compound which also lowered inflammation and ...

Concepts encoded by concept neurons can be an animal, an article of clothing, a place, or a person. The concept can be evoked ...

2). However, agrin itself is not necessary for the formation of neuron–neuron synapses. This has led to an intensive search for trans-neuronal inducers. Among the candidates are cadherins ...

2 A single neuron can receive messages through several thousand independent synapses spread across the dendritic arbor. “We estimate that around 80% of the volume of a neuron is not in the cell body ...

The role of the fast weights, δwi, is to transiently adjust neuronal output to suppress immediate errors – errors that can be predicted if y * changes slowly. The role of the slow weights, wi, is to ...

The rate of development of poikilothermic animals, such as insects, fish, and reptiles, is determined by environmental temperature. A research team has recently demonstrated how temperature can affect ...

A new study has found that a compound that is derived from herbs - such as rosemary and sage - can help to reverse some of ...
