This valuable study assesses through simulations how several features of local cortical circuits - interneuron subtypes, their specific targeting of dendritic compartments, and certain brain rhythms - ...

Compared with the control group, HFD-fed male mice showed lower dendritic spine density in both apical and basal dendrites, and lesser dendritic complexity in basal dendrites, which was indicated by ...

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 ...

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 ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Neurons and their branch extensions known as dendrites are featured within a mouse’s cerebral cortex. The result is a dizzyingly ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. One of the brain’s most important properties is its flexibility ...

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 ...

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 ...
