Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition in which affected individuals experience ...

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

This explainer outlines how neurons and glial cells coordinate electrical and chemical signals to form complex brain networks that govern thought, behavior, and consciousness. It also explores how ...

In contrast, plasticity in basal dendrites was linked to the neuron's overall output—strengthening or weakening depending on how synapse activity aligned with global action potential firing.

As you experience or encounter new things, your brain must encode this information via the right neural networks at the right ...

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition in which affected individuals experience ...

Electrical synapses that carry messages through the brain have been artificially engineered in mammals for the first time, altering their behaviour. This could have potential for preventing or ...

A massive, multi-year project led by over 150 scientists has produced the most detailed map yet of how visual information ...

In contrast, plasticity in basal dendrites was linked to the neuron’s overall output, strengthening or weakening depending on how synapse activity aligned with global action potential firing.
