A new study published in Science has found that neurons in the brain do not follow a single strategy when learning. Instead, different parts of the same neuron—its upper and lower branches—adjust ...

It identifies cell types, distinguishes axons from dendrites, and segments neuron branches, making vast data sets manageable for researchers. Lead author Dr. Brendan Celii explained that NEURD breaks ...

In lab tests, NU-9 was shown to reduce this buildup inside cells and along neuron branches, called dendrites, which are structures that help cells receive messages from other brain cells.

The first wiring diagram of every neuron in an adult brain and the 50 million connections between them has been produced for a fruit fly.

1 Introduction Motor neuron diseases (MNDs) are a clinically diverse group of neurological disorders which are characterized by the progressive degeneration of the upper and lower motor neurons in the ...
