The human brain is comprised of two main types of cells, known as neurons and glia. The first are responsible for ...

High-speed 3-D imaging. Neurons encode information — sensory data, motor plans, emotional states, and thoughts — using electrical impulses called action potentials, which provoke calcium ions ...

Researchers at MIT and the University of Vienna have created an imaging system that reveals neural activity throughout the brains of living animals. This technique, the first that can generate 3-D ...

It remains one of the most fundamental questions in neuroscience: How does the flood of sensory information—everything an animal touches, tastes, smells, sees, and hears—translate into behavior?

We identified a line (GMR57B04) labelling a previously uncharacterized, individual sensory neuron in the TOG. We named this newly identified neuron C7 according to previous nomenclature 8 ( Fig. 1c ).

OpenAI today launched Microscope, a library of neuron visualizations starting with nine popular or heavily neural networks. In all, the collection encompasses millions of images.

Neurons can only be seen using a microscope and can be split into three parts: Soma (cell body) — this portion of the neuron receives information. It contains the cell’s nucleus.

Neuroscientists now can read the mind of a fly. In a study focused on three of the fruit fly's sensory systems, the researchers developed a new tool that uses fluorescent molecules of different ...

Illuminating neuron activity in 3-D New technique allows scientists to monitor the entire nervous system of a small worm Peer-Reviewed Publication ...

Robotic system monitors specific neurons Success rate is comparable to that of highly trained scientists performing the process manually Date: August 30, 2017 ...

This is no high school science class microscope, but a massive instrument about half a room in size that uses two-photon lasers to create a 3D image of the neurons under its beams in real time.

Sensory neuronopathy, also known as sensory ganglionopathy, is a rare subgroup of peripheral nervous system diseases with specific characteristics, such as the primary and selective destruction of ...
