Researchers have managed to successfully emulate the synergistic interactions between neurons and synapses in neuromorphic circuits, pushing the frontiers of brain-like artificial intelligence....
Stimulating excitatory neurons in the caudal pedunculopontine nucleus of the brain improved the walking abilities of mice that showed Parkinson’s Disease symptoms. In 2016, there were 6.1 million...
Researchers from the Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology (SIAT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and their collaborators uncovered answers on chronic stress-induced bone loss. Previous...
A novel gene therapy that reprograms glial cells into neurons extends life span of mice with Huntington’s disease. Huntington’s disease is a fatal degenerative brain disorder caused by mutations...
Study led by Duke-NUS Medical School and National Neuroscience Institute (NNI) uncovers role of specific ion channel in epileptic seizures. Autism spectrum disorder is a lifelong developmental...
Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Professor Anthony Zador has taken the next step in his quest to solve exactly how the brain is wired. Starting out 10 years ago, Professor Anthony Zador and his lab...
Findings in fruit flies help to better understand important functions in mammalian brains. GABAergic neurons are important inhibitory neurons in the central nervous system. In Drosophila brain, a...
