Your brain can still make new neurons when you’re an adult. But how does the rare birth of these new neurons contribute to cognitive function? Researchers know that new neurons contribute to memory ...
Neurons are the most well-known cells in the brain but they are not the only type of cell in this organ. The other main type is the glial cells, also known as neuroglia. Glia comes from the Greek word ...

The first wiring diagram of every neuron in an adult brain and the 50 million connections between them has been produced for ...
A new study published in eLife has found that a remarkably rare type of neuron acts as a master conductor for the brain’s electrical activity and blood flow. Researchers at The Pennsylvania State ...
When triggered by an odor, rapid changes in membrane voltage and intracellular calcium ion levels occur in nematode olfactory neurons, causing membrane voltage sensors and calcium ion sensors to ...
Glial cells, also known as neuroglia, are non-neuronal cells that play a crucial role in various neurophysiological processes. They not only support nervous system structures but also contribute to ...
Researchers found that excessively activated neurons over time, rather than decreased neuronal activity, cause aging-related decline in brain function in nematodes. A study of nematodes by researchers ...
An integrated spiking artificial neuron, with rich neuron functionality, single-transistor footprints, and low energy consumption for neuromorphic computing systems, can be created by stacking one ...
