Researchers developed a chip-based quantum-dot laser that emulates a biological graded neuron while achieving a signal processing speed of 10 GBaud. WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a ...

A new McGill University study has found a direct link between age-related declines in neuron activity in the cerebellum and ...

The field of cellular neuroscience continues to reveal the intricate regulation of neural and glial cell function by water and ion channels, transporters, ...

Brains of older adults with super-healthy cognition grow more new neurons than those of their peers, according to a study ...

By examining mice across the lifespan, researchers showed that age lowers firing rates in cerebellar Purkinje cells, leading to poorer motor coordination. Reversing this decline improved performance, ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute at Texas Children's Hospital have uncovered a new cell type in the human brain. The study published ...

New research shows that physical pressure from brain tumors or injuries triggers a "self-destruction" program in neurons, leading to irreversible brain damage.
