Neural crest cells are a population of stem cells that invade the embryo in early development. They play a big role in what ...

New research shows that physical pressure from brain tumors or injuries triggers a "self-destruction" program in neurons, leading to irreversible brain damage.

Figure 1. Diagram showing an electrically active cell in a neuronal culture and the process of recording its transmembrane potential for further analysis Neurons are cells that enable the brain to ...

Visual experience triggers the formation of a web of neural connections in different brain areas in order to make sense of the world—and in particular, of feedback connections, which send information ...

The growing energy use of AI has gotten a lot of people working on ways to make it less power hungry. One option is to develop processors that are a better match to the sort of computational needs of ...

(A) A traditional fully connected neural network. The layers are connected by black lines corresponding to weights. The neurons separately realize the summation and nonlinear activation functions ...

Researchers have successfully developed a fully embedded wireless brain neural signal recorder. This innovative technology enables real-time recording of brain neural signals generated by the ...

In order for large-scale artificial neural network hardware to become practical in the future, it is essential to integrate artificial neuron and synaptic devices, and it is necessary to reduce mass ...

An efficient neural screening approach rapidly identifies circuit modules governing distinct behavioral transitions in ...

For more than a century, the story of the brain has been told as a tale of neurons, with every thought and memory traced to their electrical chatter. That narrative is now being rewritten as evidence ...
