Discover how individual neurons in the brain learn to recognize and predict patterns in the flow of time, providing insights into the structure of time.

Advancements could enhance perceptual capabilities in robotics. Artificially engineered biological processes, such as ...

How can the nervous system determine if a group of neurons is firing at the same rate? Hopfield and Brody's answer is, try to synchronize them. Neurons that are firing at the same rate can be ...

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.

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 ...

“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 ...

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

During the research, the team discovered that simultaneous, recurrent firing of these neurons in mice produces a torpor-like state, similar to that of animals in hibernation, characterized by ...

Artificially engineered biological processes, such as perception systems, remain an elusive target for organic electronics experts due to the reliance of human senses on an adaptive network of sensory ...
