Studying how brain cells respond to signals from their neighbors can aid the understanding of cognition and development. However, experimentally measuring the brain's activity is complicated. Neuron ...
Scientists have known for years that a lattice of blood vessels nourishes cells in the retina that allow us to see -- but it's been a mystery how the intricate structure is created. Now, researchers ...

New lab-built neuron mirrors real brain cells in energy, runs on just 0.1 volts
The team’s advance changes this. “Ours register only 0.1 volts, which about the same as the neurons in our bodies,” says Yao. With this low-voltage design, the artificial neurons could integrate not ...
Investigators at Cedars-Sinai have created computer-generated models to bridge the gap between "test tube" data about neurons and the function of those cells in the living brain. Their study, ...
Comparing a map of the neurons in a nematode worm - the connectome - with a map of how signals travel across those neurons ...
Scientists at Northwestern University have developed a new approach that directly combats the progression of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) ...
