Neurons continuously adjust their coordination ... crafted over aeons of natural selection. Future work will be needed to see how these principles might play out in the human brain.

Anticonvulsants used to treat epilepsy work on GABA. And drugs used to treat Parkinson’s disease, such as L-DOPA, promote dopamine function. Other Brain Cells (Glia) Although neurons are ...

Eight years of work. A collaboration between the Laboratory of Neuroethology of Non-Human Primates of the Department of Medicine and Surgery of the University of Parma, led by Luca Bonini, and a team ...

Researchers used proteomics to map synaptic proteins in two types of pyramidal neurons, IT and PT, highlighting differences ...

Postdoc Katie Schretter, on the other hand, is interested in understanding how neurons in the fly brain work together to help the fly focus on its opponent -- information that will enable ...

This chip-based laser neuron mimics how human neurons work, but it's incredibly fast. Scientists at the Chinese University of Hong Kong state that this laser neuron operates at an astonishing ...

Tohoku University scientists created lab-grown neural networks using microfluidic devices, mimicking natural brain activity ...

New research reveals the cellular secrets of aging, with cutting-edge single-cell data mapping how neurons, glial cells, and immune systems reshape the aging brain. Study: Brain-wide cell-type ...

In most research labs, the scientists are on the same page about why they're pursuing a research project. But the Rubin Lab at HHMI's Janelia Research Campus isn't an ordinary research lab.
