Different neuronal cells have a diverse range of activity patterns, but the cause has remained unclear. In mice, maps of brain-wide inputs to individual neurons that do or do not show activity ...

Scientists have discovered how stress can lead to serious mental health problems. To better understand the function of type I ...

"Nia Therapeutics publishes first in vivo validation of SNS" was originally created and published by Medical Device Network, ...

Researchers have applied a visualization technique to depict the brain's activity related to visual perception as geometric patterns. They visualized different shapes as the ever-changing neuronal ...

Brain functions stem from and rely on electrical signals created and propagated by neurons. As such, scientists measure electrical signals to study neuronal function at both single-cell and systemic ...

Synaptic transmission is an energy hog. It requires neurons to tap ATP reserves to respond to incoming signals. How do they pull this off, thousands to millions of times per day? A new study ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual ...

Light is quietly becoming the new language of brain technology. Instead of thick wires and skull-penetrating electrodes, a ...

The SNS records neural activity from 60 channels across four brain regions—an order-of-magnitude increase over commercially ...

A new device consists of four flexible petals equipped with platinum electrodes, which curl around the spheroid when exposed to the liquid that supports the cell structure. This actuation is driven by ...
