Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed.

Researchers at Tel Aviv University have developed an innovative research model that allowed them to decode the mechanism underlying a severe and rare neurological disease. The disease is ...

The cerebral cortex is the largest part of a mammal's brain, and by some measures, the most important. In humans in particular, it's where most things happen—like perception, thinking, memory storage ...

Researchers have developed a 3D-printed model that mimics brain tissue, using nanopillar arrays to guide neuron growth. The ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers have now developed a 3D-printed 'brain-like environment' ...

Hence, researchers often simulate the brain as a network of coupled neural masses, each described by a mean-field model. These models capture the essential features of neuronal populations while ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible ...

One gene, GSK3β, weakens neuron defenses against oxidative stress. ApoE4 astrocytes cause hyperactivity and oxidative stress in neurons. This isn’t the first 3D model system involving hiPSC-derived ...
