Scientists have long known that the brain's visual system isn't fully hardwired from the start—it becomes refined by what ...

In the cerebral cortex, numerous neurons exchange information through junctions known as synapses. The strength of each ...

Synaptic Era will use a $5 million seed round to better position its health care and government AI agents and chatbots.

Astrocytes have a primary cell body (soma) with numerous branching processes that envelope nearby synapses ().This three-part structure is known as the tripartite synapse ().A single astrocyte can ...

Abstract: This paper presents interneuron synaptic communication models with relay synaptic neuron (RSN) positioned in the synaptic gap. Utilizing a time-slotted channel framework, each slot transmits ...

Two men used a chain saw to cut down the celebrated Sycamore Gap tree in the north of England in a “moronic mission” in 2023, and the felling was filmed on a cellphone, a prosecutor in ...

More CRISPRi screens showed that different genes in ApoE4 versus ApoE3 astrocytes modulated neuron survival. ApoE4 astrocytes boosted neuronal expression of genes involved in synaptic transmission and ...

How an electrical signal crosses that synaptic gap is not yet entirely understood, but the basic process seems to go like this: a presynaptic neuron receives a message that it has information to ...

When a neuron is activated, it sends electrical signals down its axon, which are converted into chemical signals at the synapse. These chemicals, called neurotransmitters, are released into the ...
