Researchers examined anatomy of neurons from humans, mice and fruit flies. They discovered that the cellular structure of the brain is at a critical point, poised between two phases. New insights ...
The human brain, as the seat of mental life—from the most complicated intellectual processes down to routine and unconscious bodily control—is necessarily enormously complex. The largest part of the ...
Using stem cells to advance understanding of neuron and synapse formation Neuroscientists have traditionally used rodent systems to study these synaptic connections in the brain. While that provides a ...
Fluorescent image of a brain organoid showing a neuroepithelial structure. Neurons are labeled in green (TUJ1 staining), while cell nuclei are shown in blue (DAPI). Scale bar: 50 μm Scientists from ...
When a magnet is heated up, it reaches a critical point where it loses magnetization. Called "criticality," this point of high complexity is reached when a physical object is transitioning smoothly ...
Researchers at the University of Lausanne have identified a novel role for the brain's "locus coeruleus" in sleep and its disruptions. This brain region facilitates the transition between NREM and REM ...
