Connections made via apical synapses seemed to be strengthened by movement information more than those made via basal ...

NUS researchers have shown that a single transistor can replicate both neural and synaptic behaviors, marking a significant ...

Are artificial neurons underestimating the power of their biological models? Ten years after initial theoretical predictions, ...

can function like a biological neuron and synapse when operated in a specific, unconventional way. Led by Associate Professor Mario Lanza from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering ...

Lab safety rules dictate that one must tie back long hair. Rosemarie Hansen learned the hard way when an open flame turned her locks into a lesson. New methods for deriving macrophages from induced ...

Findings challenge the idea that neurons follow a single learning strategy and offer a new perspective on how the brain ...

They are the most common neuron found in mammalian bodies. Neuron Function Synapses Neural synapses are junctions between neurons that permit neural communication. Synapses come in two different forms ...

Examples like Intel's Loihi chips tend to get competitive performance out of far lower clock speeds and energy use, but they ...

Between the axon of a transmitting neuron and the dendrite of a receiving neuron is a gap called the synapse—the site at which signals are passed between the brain cells. The nervous system ...
