Delivering a connection-building protein to star-shaped cells in the brain could reverse changes to neural circuits seen in ...

Alzheimer's is a devastating disease that results in memory loss and cognitive decline. It's caused by brain cells dying and the brain itself shrinking from a buildup of proteins. Millions of seniors ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By ...

A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...

Study finds ultrathin tubes connecting brain cells that transport Alzheimer's proteins. The network changes months before plaques appear.

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

Scientists can finally hear the brain’s quietest messages—unlocking the hidden code behind how neurons think, decide, and ...

At the best resolution achieved, dendodendritic synapses were visible (magenta arrowheads – top). The same sample was then imaged using volume EM (FIB-SEM method) to confirm the accuracy in detecting ...
