Artificially engineered biological processes, such as perception systems, remain an elusive target for organic electronics ...

A new collaboration has unlocked new potential for the field by creating a novel high-performance organic electrochemical neuron that responds within the frequency range of human neurons.

Individual cells in the brain light up for specific ideas. These concept neurons, once known as “Jennifer Aniston cells,” ...

Researchers from Northwestern and Georgia Tech developed an organic electrochemical neuron that fires at human-like frequencies, enabling real-time tactile signal processing. Their system integrates ...

Forget the traditional tubular shape—researchers are investigating a pearl-on-a-string formation for axons, unlocking new ...

A new study has identified a group of neurons that, when activated, can induce a hypometabolic state, akin to hibernation. The discovery could have far-reaching implications for conditions like ...

“After nerve injury, we found the sensory neurons do not fire as individual incidents, but they fire as a group in the DRG. We call it a clustered firing,” said Zhang, MD, professor and vice ...

Neurons communicate with one another in two ways: via binary signals called action potentials, or spikes, and through neuron firing known as “burst firing.” Burst firing occurs when the neuron ...

A new collaboration between Northwestern University and Georgia Tech has led to the development of an artificial electrochemical neuron that mimics human neural responses, paving the way for smarter ...

Yale researchers found that cannabis-derived compounds CBD, CBG and CBN reduce pain signaling by inhibiting the Nav1.8 ...
