This image shows a subset of the more than 1,000 of the 120,000 brain cells (neuron + glia) reconstructed in the MICrONS ...

They found a shift in neuron types, showing that the developing brain is more susceptible to external influences than ...

Using in-vitro models of a specific type of brain cell, scientists have demonstrated that neurons can transform from one type ...

Researchers have created an AI-powered "digital twin" of the mouse visual cortex that can accurately simulate neural responses to visual input, including movies.

This implies that under certain conditions, even brain cells change, and so do their functions. This is noteworthy as it ...

have advanced our understanding of the functional and morphological characteristics of synaptic connections between many neuron types. In particular, two important principles have emerged from ...

Each neuron receives signals from both excitatory ... to ensure that neurons can function properly. There are multiple types of glial cells with distinct purposes. Major kinds of glia include: ...

Using in-vitro models of a specific type of brain cell, scientists show that neurons are capable of changing from one type to ...

Earlier studies mostly focused on neurogenesis—the generation of neurons in the brain—and fast neuron migration all moving in one direction early in the development of an embryo. But ...

That's where these types of reprogramming technologies can ... we're going directly from a somatic cell to a motor neuron." Galloway's research group and others have demonstrated this type of ...

A new Drosophila collection of Parkinsonism models reveals early synaptic cholinergic projection neuron dysfunction, linking synaptic failure to later dopaminergic decline, highlighting a role for ...
