Faithful biophysical models of human and rat L2/3 PCs, combined with pharmacological manipulations of membrane properties, showed both the larger diameter of the apical dendrite and the larger ...

This important study uses calcium imaging to show an increase in the selectivity of the sensory-evoked response in the apical dendritic tuft of layer 5 barrel cortex neurons as mice learn a ...

However, non-conscious processing also happens in cortex. According to the present view, if the processing does not involve L5p cells or the apical-dendritic modulation of these cells remains ...

They produce neurons that migrate to the cortex, their axons and dendrites forming neural circuits that underlie ... MZ, marginal zone. aRG, apical radial glial cell; bRGs, basal radial glial cells ...

Published in Nature Communications, the study describes how two key proteins allow glial cells to actively monitor the hair-like cilia that extend out of nematode dendrites, so that the glial ...

The US isn’t guaranteed to maintain a lead over China in the race to develop artificial intelligence, according to Alphabet Inc. President and Chief Investment Officer Ruth Porat. “It isn’t ...

2. Neurons are made of three parts Neurons receive signals in a short antennae-like part called the dendrite, and send signals to other neurons with a long cable-like part called the axon.

Scientists discovered that dendrites, the branch-like extensions of neurons, contain a structured network of contact sites that amplify calcium signals—similar to how muscles contract. These contact ...
