Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest types of tumors. A team at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) reports that ...

An international research team has shown that lung cancer cells can form functional synapses with neurons, effectively hijacking the body’s neural circuits to grow faster. The finding reveals a ...

Synaptic changes lie at the nexus of many neurodegenerative diseases, underpinning cognitive decline. However, it has been hard to get a handle on exactly how these tiny structures change in disease, ...

Scientists from Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) and the University of Edinburgh have discovered that a little-understood junction that connects neurons to oligodendrocyte precursor cells ...

(a) Schematic diagram of a biological neural network and (b) circuit schematic of an artificial neural network implemented in hardware using an artificial neuromorphic device. (c) Experimental results ...

Specific brain cells known as layer 5 pyramidal neurons play a vital role in how our brains process information. Research by the team of Prof. Joris de Wit (VIB-KU Leuven) and colleagues highlights ...

Researchers have developed a new type of artificial neuron that physically emulates the electrochemical processes of ...
