International researchers develop NTAC, an AI that identifies neuronal types with 90% accuracy based purely on synaptic connectivity, outperforming traditional shape-based methods.

Neurons are cells in the body that are responsible for transmitting electrical signals through the nervous system. Different types of neurons affect the ability to move, which begins as an impulse, or ...

Recent technological advances facilitate the reconstruction of complete brain connectomes in small organisms and partial ...

Neuroscientists and psychologists have been trying to understand how the human brain supports learning and the encoding of ...

Cortical Labs says the stunt points toward a new kind of low-power computing—and perhaps a new way to study neurological ...

Researchers identify "meal memory" neurons in laboratory rats that could explain why forgetting lunch leads to overeating. Scientists have discovered a specific group of brain cells that create ...

Specific brain cells known as layer 5 pyramidal neurons play a vital role in how our brains process information. Research by the team of Prof. Joris de Wit (VIB-KU Leuven) and colleagues highlights ...
