Westlake University in China and the California Institute of Technology have designed a protein-based system inside living ...
Researchers have engineered a laser-based artificial neuron that simulates the complex functions of a biological graded ...
A new study may overturn the century-old understanding of how neurons are shaped—but not everyone is on board.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease that affects motor neurons. The average life ...
Researchers developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the functions, dynamics and information processing of a biological graded neuron, which could lead to new breakthroughs in ...
A team of researchers from the University of Massachusetts Amherst is the first to show how proteins called "chaperones" are vital in ensuring that neurons can transmit signals to one another. When ...
Researchers developed a chip-based quantum-dot laser that emulates a biological graded neuron while achieving a signal ...
It turned out that this highly depended on the type of neuron. All neurons reacted to touch. But not all types sent signals to the brain in a way that contained all the information needed for the ...

It triggers it in neurons. So when a neuron signals to another neuron, it releases neurotransmitters. And that triggers the next neuron to fire. And in the decades since, researchers– some groups said ...
