Investigators at Cedars-Sinai have created computer-generated models to bridge the gap between "test tube" data about neurons and the function of those cells in the living brain. Their study, ...
A Northwestern Medicine study has revealed a key mechanism underlying the development of motor neuron diseases, offering new insights into potential treatment options, according to a study published ...
Researchers have made a surprising discovery linking Delta/Notch signaling in subperineurial glia (SPG) to the regulation of nerve ensheathment and neurotransmitter release at the Drosophila ...
A groundbreaking study conducted by engineers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has developed an artificial neuron ...
Neuron cells are directly associated with neurodegenerative diseases. However, they are not isolated. They interact/communicate with surrounding cells through physical contact, signal-ligand pathway, ...
Scientists studying neuronal energy metabolism found evidence the loss of an important energy regulator called AMPK in neural stem cells or glial cells called astrocytes causes neuronal death in ...
In a study published in Neuron, a research team at the Department of Neurology at Massachusetts General Hospital, aimed to ...

New lab-built neuron mirrors real brain cells in energy, runs on just 0.1 volts
The team’s advance changes this. “Ours register only 0.1 volts, which about the same as the neurons in our bodies,” says Yao. With this low-voltage design, the artificial neurons could integrate not ...
Our mushy brains seem a far cry from the solid silicon chips in computer processors, but scientists have a long history of comparing the two. As Alan Turing put it in 1952: “We are not interested in ...
