BUFFALO, N.Y. – A paper by researchers in the University at Buffalo’s Department of Mathematics that could impact the way neuron-to-neuron communications are mapped was recently published in the ...

When a person experiences a happy or sad mood, which brain cells are active? To answer that question, scientists need to understand how individual brain cells contribute to a larger network of brain ...

New research challenges the century-old practice of mapping the brain based on how tissue looks under a microscope. By analyzing electrical signals from thousands of neurons in mice, scientists ...

Exercise does more than strengthen muscles; it also rewires the brain. In a study published in Neuron, researchers reveal that the lasting gain in endurance from repeated exercise—such as the ability ...

The technique for inducing differentiation of human motor neurons used in this paper clearly shows neuronal electrical activity. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not responsible for the accuracy ...

Researchers have used a novel manufacturing technique to create a minimally invasive, customizable sensor that can wirelessly record deep brain activity down to a resolution of one or two neurons. The ...

A new ultra-small and ultra-flexible electronic neural implant, delivered via blood vessels, can record single-neuron activity deep within the brains of rats, according to new study. "This technology ...

For more than a century, the story of the brain has been told as a tale of neurons, with every thought and memory traced to their electrical chatter. That narrative is now being rewritten as evidence ...

The human brain contains nearly 86 billion neurons, constantly exchanging messages like an immense social media network, but neurons do not work alone – glial cells, neurotransmitters, receptors, and ...
