A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual ...

Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain's neuronal connections and, as a result, in signal transmission between neurons.

Even consciousness could reveal its secrets someday with this realistic simulation, researchers hope. It will not only ...

Every movement you make and every memory you form depends on precise communication between neurons. When that communication ...

Every movement you make and every memory you form depends on precise communication between neurons. When that communication is disrupted, the brain must rapidly rebalance its internal signaling to ...

The study presents convincing quantitative evidence, supported by appropriate negative controls, for the presence of low-abundance glycine receptors (GlyRs) within inhibitory synapses in telencephalic ...

A research team led by Dr. Àlex Bayés, Head of the Molecular Physiology of the Synapse Group at the Institut de Recerca Sant Pau (IR Sant Pau), has achieved what for decades had been an elusive goal: ...
