A new study published in Science has found that neurons in the brain do not follow a single strategy when learning. Instead, different parts of the same neuron—its upper and lower branches—adjust ...
The brain’s rules seem simple: Fire together, wire together. When groups of neurons activate, they become interconnected. This networking is how we learn, reason, form memories, and adapt to our world ...
Learning is something everyone does daily—mastering new skills at work, remembering song lyrics, or following directions to new places. But behind these everyday tasks lies a complex biological ...
This valuable study shows that eliminating a large portion of the principal neurons in the mammalian olfactory bulb does not affect the initial establishment of the circuit but has an impact on its ...
Revised: This Reviewed Preprint has been revised by the authors in response to the previous round of peer review; the eLife assessment and the public reviews have been updated where necessary by the ...
Abstract: Brain-inspired computing uses the law of brain processing information to simulate the brain. The network formed by the transmission of different signals between neurons has the ability to ...
Microglia respond to proteinopathies by changing their shapes and expression profiles in different ways. Here’s one that has been somewhat overlooked: rod-shaped microglia. These long, straight cells ...
Faced with images that break the expected pattern, like a 'do not enter' sign where a 'stop' sign is expected, how does the brain react and learn compared to being shown images which match what was ...
Scientists have long hypothesized that the neocortex makes top-down predictions about future stimuli by learning patterns in sensory data. According to this hypothesis, distinct reactions have been ...
