Interrupting signals exchanged between tumors and the nervous system could become a critical pillar of cancer care ...

This influx of calcium at the contact site attracts and activates a kinase called CaMKII, a protein known to be important in ...

New research reveals that brain cells use a muscle-like signaling mechanism to relay information over long distances.

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 ...

changing the strength of the signal that is passed down the plasma membrane. This process continues from contact site to contact site all along the dendrite to the cell body, where the neuron ...
