Individual neurons have branching extensions known as dendrites that can receive thousands of electrical inputs from other cells. Dendrites transmit these inputs to the main body of the neuron, where ...

Findings challenge the idea that neurons follow a single learning strategy and offer a new perspective on how the brain learns and adapts behavior.

Researchers have developed a novel copper oxide-based electrode material and successfully applied it to aqueous zinc-ion ...

An NIH-funded project leverages advanced synapse imaging to monitor real-time neuronal changes during learning, unveiling new insights that could inspire next-generation brain-like AI systems. How do ...

New research reveals that individual neurons follow multiple learning rules simultaneously, challenging the long-held belief that synaptic plasticity operates uniformly throughout the brain.

Generally, the neuron is composed of two morphologically and biochemically distinct compartments, the axon and the dendrites. The proper polarization of membrane proteins is critical for neuronal ...
