Neuroscientists have identified the physical locations where memories are stored in the brain. But would that enable us to ...

Researchers discovered that electrical synapses filter sensory signals in animals, enabling context-specific ...

A new study reveals how electrical synapses help animals, including worms, filter sensory inputs and make context-appropriate ...

To maintain these long-term memories, brain cells make proteins that help strengthen the connections, or synapses, between neurons. One critical protein is the enzyme PKMzeta, which is continually ...

The composition of nodes that effectively transmit sinusoidal waves in a model network resembling C. elegans' electrical synapses network changes according to the waves' wavenumber.

Specific brain cells known as layer 5 pyramidal neurons play a vital role in how our brains process information. Research by ...

Layer 5 pyramidal neurons, crucial for brain information processing, vary significantly in their synaptic protein composition based on neuron type.

Neurons within a given engram are connected through synapses, the spaces between neurons where electrochemical signals travel, according to the National Library of Medicine. When a memory is ...

Researchers used proteomics to map synaptic proteins in two types of pyramidal neurons, IT and PT, highlighting differences ...

Researchers at KAUST, Saudi Arabia, have made significant strides in neuromorphic computing by developing a reconfigurable ...
