Researchers developed a chip-based quantum-dot laser that emulates a biological graded neuron while achieving a signal processing speed of 10 GBaud. WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a ...

To better model how neurons fire and interact with glia, some scientists place the cells into a brain or grow them in an organoid. Others have produced little spheres of human neural tissue by ...

New treatments for neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and motor neuron disease (MND) could be unlocked thanks to microscopic medicines developed by researchers at the University ...

Measuring neurofilament light chain levels 48 hours after cardiac arrest can predict long-term cognitive impairment, outperforming current standard blood tests. This biomarker offers a new way for ...

There are a number of companies, including Aspen, advancing cell therapies for Parkinson’s disease.

In a sweeping new map of the adult Drosophila melanogaster brain, researchers at the University of Oxford found that mature ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute at Texas Children's Hospital have uncovered a new cell type in the human brain. The study published ...

Drug addiction carries an extremely high risk of relapse, as cravings can be reignited by minor stimuli even long after one has stopped using. Previously, this phenomenon was attributed to a decline ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers have developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the functions, dynamics and information processing of a biological graded neuron. With a signal ...
