Scientists have built an artificial neuron that’s so realistic it fires, learns, and responds to chemical signals just like ...

That's like an artificial neuron 'screaming' at the top of its lungs to a typical human neuron. All that hollering takes a ...

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 ...

Propofol is the most commonly used drug to induce general anesthesia. Despite its frequent clinical application, it is poorly understood how propofol causes anesthesia. Propofol is the most commonly ...

Summary: Scientists have shown that neurons don’t rely solely on sugar for energy — they can also burn fat. When energy ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers have developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the functions, dynamics and information processing of a biological graded neuron. With a signal ...

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, ...
