Uncovering the relationship between structure (connectivity) and function (neuronal activity) is a fundamental question across many areas of biology. However, investigating this directly in animal ...

Implantable bioelectronics are vital to neuroscience, neurological therapies, and brain-machine interfaces. They serve as ...

Parse Biosciences, the leading provider of accessible and scalable single cell sequencing solutions, today announced a groundbreaking study published in the journal Science that utilized Parse’s ...

This important study presents a new method for longitudinally tracking cells in two-photon imaging data that addresses the specific challenges of imaging neurons in the developing cortex. It provides ...

"Our previous studies found that the brain function for associative learning in C. elegans declines over time, and we thought this was due to a decline in neuronal activity with age," said Binta ...

New research highlights how astrocytes, long considered mere support cells, actively shape brain network dynamics.

Neuronal position has a role in determining a neuron's function. Appropriate neuronal positioning is achieved through an active process of migration from the site of neuronal birth to the target ...

Neurons that die early in Alzheimer’s help drive brain waste removal. Treating this process sooner could change outcomes.

Thermo Fisher Scientific has developed an improved version of its B-27 system. The new system’s pluses include better neuronal survival, faster neurite outgrowth, and increased neural activity.

Measuring neuronal voltage signals has traditionally been done through electrophysiology techniques. Highly skilled scientists can use glass electrodes when performing patch-clamp experiments to ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have unraveled the processes that give astrocytes, the most abundant glial cell in the brain, their special bushy shape, which is fundamental for brain ...
