Researchers at the University of Queensland have discovered that the thickness of the brain's outer layer influences how individual neurons process information Researchers at the University of ...

Nov. 21 (UPI) --How neurons process information is dependent on their positioning within the cortex, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Queensland. Until now, neuroscientists ...

New research indicates some neurons can shift to process information about movement depending on the brain's current frame of reference. The findings may have implications for developing future ...

New research has settled the debate between ‘kiss-and-run’ and ‘full-collapse’ fusion to explain how neurons transmit signals across synapses. Scientists from the University of Science and Technology ...

Researchers have developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the functions, dynamics and information processing of a biological graded neuron. With a signal processing speed of 10 ...

Neurodegenerative disease profoundly affects structures and pathways responsible for memory, cognition, and higher-order ...

In the early 20th century scientists began to record brain activity using electrodes attached to the scalp. To their surprise, they saw that brain activity is characterized by slow and rapid ascending ...

Researchers at the University of Queensland have discovered that the thickness of the brain's outer layer influences how individual neurons process information. The findings challenge the ...

Using computer models and laboratory rats, Johns Hopkins researchers have demonstrated that Using computer models and laboratory rats, Johns Hopkins researchers have demonstrated that "direct ...

Scientists have developed a new kind of laser-based artificial neuron that mimics a biological nerve cell. This artificial neuron could boost high-speed computing and artificial intelligence (AI), ...

New Rochester research indicates some neurons may be more adept than previously thought in helping you perceive the motion of objects while you move through the world. The findings may have ...
