Researchers identify two key proteins that allow chandelier cells to connect with excitatory neurons. This "handshake" regulates brain signals and, when disrupted, may lead to epilepsy or autism.
Less is more: A core circuit as a pacemaker To understand the basic principles of the clock network, the research team pursued a simple strategy: it examined a radically simplified system. "In our ...
New research reveals how a class of neurons that help coordinate communication in the brain link up with their target cells, identifying two molecules that must be present before synapses, the ...
