International researchers develop NTAC, an AI that identifies neuronal types with 90% accuracy based purely on synaptic connectivity, outperforming traditional shape-based methods.

By tagging neurons with molecular "barcodes," researchers have mapped connections among thousands of neurons in the mouse ...

A team of neuroscientists at the Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown, in Lisbon, has been able to map single neural connections over long distances in the brain. "These are the first measurements of ...

Recent technological advances facilitate the reconstruction of complete brain connectomes in small organisms and partial connectomes in mammals, involving the mapping of the network of neurons and ...

Our brain is a complex organ. Billions of nerve cells are wired in an intricate network, constantly processing signals, enabling us to recall memories or to move our bodies. Making sense of this ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Neurons and their branch extensions known as dendrites are featured within a mouse’s cerebral cortex. The result is a dizzyingly ...

Could the initiation of a simple walking exercise program help older adults to reverse declines in key brain regions? A new study led by University of Maryland School of Public Health researchers adds ...

Language processing in humans depends on the neuronal connection between language areas in the brain. Until recently, this language network was thought to be uniquely human. Now, in a discovery ...
