New research reveals how a class of neurons that help coordinate communication in the brain link up with their target cells, ...

The world’s most powerful supercomputers can now run simulations of billions of neurons, and researchers hope such models ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These devices emulate how neurons use chemicals to transmit and process signals, ...

It takes just a few milliseconds: A vesicle, only a few nanometers in size and filled with neurotransmitters, approaches a cell membrane, fuses with it, and releases its chemical messengers into the ...

Seventy years on, the paper’s through-line is not a single political position, but a commitment to voice: to documenting how students experience power, responsibility, and care in real time. In that ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual category learning task exactly as well as lab animals, but even enabled the ...

This is an important study on the sensory roles of Cerebrospinal fluid-contacting neurons (CBF-cn) in mammals. The authors identify PKD2L1 as the predominant pH-sensing channel CBF-cn and show how the ...

Rock-paper-scissors is usually a game of psychology, reverse psychology, reverse-reverse psychology, and chance. But what if a computer could understand you well enough to win every time? A team at ...

Our laboratory studies neuron-cancer interactions, with a focus on developmental malignancies. Using a multi-disciplinary approach within the emerging field of cancer neuroscience, we leverage ...
