Concepts encoded by concept neurons can be an animal, an article of clothing, a place, or a person. The concept can be evoked ...

Read more: Pros And Cons Of Recombinant DNA Technology To the general public, it might not seem very productive toward human neurological research for scientists to work so hard on an insect ...

The images above depict artificially-derived neurons grown in petri dishes, with a human neuron shown on the left. Artificially-derived chimpanzee neurons grow only one or two neurites (connecting ...

Scientists have developed a breakthrough technique to directly convert skin cells into neurons, bypassing the need for stem ...

However, they can’t replicate the complexity of real human neuron development on their own, Science News reports. In a bid to further organoid development, scientists transplanted human cerebral ...

This graphical abstract shows how human cortical neurons exhibit a higher degree of voltage compartmentalization compared to rodent counterparts due to lower ion channel densities across larger ...

Studies on humans have generally been less definitive than those done on animals because it is substantially more difficult to record the activity of a single neuron in human brains. However ...

About 20 years ago, scientists discovered that skin cells could be converted into pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), which can ...

Weill Cornell Medicine scientists have developed an innovative human neuron model that robustly simulates the spread of tau protein aggregates in the brain-;a process that drives cognitive decline ...

For the first time, it has been confirmed that individual neurons represent the concepts we learn, regardless of the context ...

A new study in Brain Medicine explores how maternal immune activation (MIA) affects hippocampal neuron function in newborn ...
