The model calculations in the present study show that proteins are therefore preferably synthesized in the branched, tapering ...

Nerve cells have amazing strategies to save energy and still perform the most important of their tasks. Researchers found that the neuronal energy conservation program determines the location and ...

Virginia Tech neuroscientists have uncovered a mitochondrial process that supports the brain cells critical for learning, ...

A new drug-free, minimally invasive intervention targets the root cause of progressive loss of neural function in spinal ...

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 ...

Research led by Lancaster University has revealed clear evidence that changes in the orchestration of brain oxygenation dynamics and neuronal function in Alzheimer's disease contribute to the ...

In particular, one gene that is key to neuron survival “expressed less,” meaning it produced less of the protein needed to perform a particular function. In essence, these PFAS chemicals ...
