Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far ...

Nerve cells are not just nerve cells. Depending on how finely we distinguish, there are several hundred to several thousand ...

Glial cells support neurological structures, function, cognition, behaviours, physical skills, and motor coordination.

Scientists at the Salk Institute have uncovered how a cluster of thalamic neurons links physical pain to emotional trauma, ...

Killer whales are one of the most intelligent animals; only humans have a larger brain relative to their body size, according ...

The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI) reports its latest AI model aimed at helping researchers better understand how cells ...

While comparing neurons and transistors is a convenient metaphor (and not completely out of left field), the brain is ...

A new study reveals that inhibitory neurons born later in development mature more quickly than earlier ones, allowing them to ...

A highly scalable neuron composed of one biristor and two transistors (1B2T neuron) is proposed. The output voltage and pulsewidth in the 1B2T neuron are reduced compared with that in the previously ...

New research shows a single neuron in fruit flies can trigger two distinct behaviors in response to the same smell.
