Researchers from Kyushu University have developed an innovative technique to non-invasively measure two key signals, membrane voltage and intracellular calcium levels, at the same time, in neurons of ...

Researchers have made a surprising discovery linking Delta/Notch signaling in subperineurial glia (SPG) to the regulation of nerve ensheathment and neurotransmitter release at the Drosophila ...

Midbrain dopamine (mDA) neurons in the ventral midbrain (vMB) are involved in the regulation of complex behaviours and locomotion, and are affected in multiple brain disorders 1. Historically, mDA ...

Researchers developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the functions, dynamics and information processing of a biological graded neuron, which could lead to new breakthroughs in ...

A recent study published in Nature 1 used an optogenetically-activated behavioral paradigm in fruit flies to demonstrate that individual motor neurons command their target muscles in a biased manner ...
