When humans and other animals move through familiar or unfamiliar environments, their brains rely on numerous intricate neural processes to decide which path to take next. Past studies have identified ...
Reducing excess asparagine synthetase in a mouse model of Angelman syndrome restored protein synthesis and improved ...
Inside the brain is a dense network of neurons that receive, process, and relay information. The synapse, where neurons meet, is the epicenter of this communication. Neurons that send information, ...
Action potential is the electrical signal that lets neurons communicate, and this concise neuroscience lesson breaks down how it works from start to finish. The explanation begins with the resting ...
Original story from the Salk Institute (CA, USA). Scientists use new 3D reconstructions and computer simulations to reveal previously unmeasurable changes in synaptic structure during key learning ...
Evolutionary and computational models suggest that higher BK potassium-channel conductance may ease calcium-dependent ...
