Scientists have found a way to freeze living brain tissue and revive it, with memory function apparently intact.

The ultra-thin TOPCon solar cell uses dual-sided polysilicon passivated contacts formed by low-pressure chemical vapor ...

UC San Diego and Scripps Research scientists used a novel method to show that some memory neurons produce proteins at higher rates than others. A new method lets researchers visualize messenger RNA ...

The hippocampus is a crucial part of the brain that plays a role in memory and learning, especially in remembering directions and locations. New research from the University of Chicago shows how this ...

Summary: Scientists have identified a previously unseen layered organization inside one of the brain’s most important memory hubs. The CA1 region of the hippocampus was found to contain four distinct ...

Abstract: A mixed-order divergence-conforming method for pyramidal cells is presented for use with a locally corrected Nyström discretization of a volume integral equation. The function space is ...

Environment-specific neuronal activity in the hippocampus supports spatial navigation. A substantial fraction of pyramidal cells (PCs) is active whereas other neurons remain silent in a given ...

ITHACA, N.Y. – Psilocybin is the active ingredient that gives so-called “magic mushrooms” their hallucinogenic kick. It also has a therapeutic potential for treating depression. Now, Cornell ...

Abstract: Neocortical layer 5 thick-tufted pyramidal cells are prone to exhibiting burst firing on receipt of coincident basal and apical dendritic inputs. These inputs carry different information, ...
