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

The neuron theory There was, however, a tissue that seemed to belie cell theory — nervous tissue. Because of its softness and fragility, it was difficult to handle and susceptible to deterioration.

In order to understand the brain, we need to first understand the morphology of neurons. In the neurobiology community, there have been recent pushes to analyze both neuron connectivity and the ...

Therefore, the present study aimed to develop an experimental platform to investigate how sensory neuron signals increase spinal neuronal activity. Methods: We developed a specialized microstructure ...

A neuromorphic visual system based on artificial sensory neurons offers a promising way to reduce power consumption in image sensing and processing. In this study, an inhibitive sensory neuron capable ...

The French air force's future unmanned combat air vehicle (UCAV) will break cover during the Paris air show, with developer Dassault Aviation to reveal a model of the type within its static display.

Here’s how it works. Our microscopes expert Heather Barker, who wrote this article, demonstrating how to create your own microscope slides. (Image credit: Heather Barker) ...
