How does Alzheimer’s target specific brain cells? Researchers are building a multiscale model of the hippocampus to map neuronal loss and cognitive decline.
In the cerebral cortex, extrinsic and intrinsic excitatory glutamatergic pathways terminate on principal glutamatergic neurons and local inhibitory GABAergic interneurons. Activation of these pathways ...
Stressful situations experienced during adolescence tend to cause deeper and more lasting changes to the brain than those ...
When we learn a new skill, the brain has to decide—cell by cell—what to change. New research from MIT suggests it can do that with surprising precision, sending targeted feedback to individual neurons ...
What causes preeclampsia and preterm birth? A study maps 1.2 million cells at the maternal-fetal interface. Discover the new ...
Every organism must be able to respond to stimuli in its environment, but when animal sizes strain the limits of neuron ...
Biological computing, a field in which living human neurons interface with silicon hardware, is progressing from proof of concept to early functional systems, with broad implications for computing ...
Scientists have trained a computer made from living human neurons to play the classic video game Doom, marking a strange but important step forward in biological computing. A clump of roughly 200,000 ...
Researchers in Japan pioneered reprogrammed cells 20 years ago. Now the country has given the first-ever authorizations to manufacture and sell medical products based on the technology. “We are very ...
