This useful study presents a biologically realistic, large-scale cortical model of the rat's non-barrel somatosensory cortex, investigating synaptic plasticity of excitatory connections under varying ...

Smaller, shallow brain folds in the posteromedial cortex show greater thinning with age and Alzheimer’s disease, and their ...

Psilocybin, a psychedelic compound contained in some varieties of mushrooms, has recently been found to be promising for the ...

Background —The mechanisms regulating the cerebellar microcirculation during neural activity are poorly understood. One of the major neural inputs to the cerebellar cortex is the climbing fiber (CF), ...
