Types of Neurons and Their Function
Neurons are cells in the body that are responsible for transmitting electrical signals through the nervous system. Different types of neurons affect the ability to move, which begins as an impulse, or ...
Researchers identify "meal memory" neurons in laboratory rats that could explain why forgetting lunch leads to overeating. Scientists have discovered a specific group of brain cells that create ...
Scientists successfully borrow concepts from string theory to explain the network architecture of branching biological systems like neurons ...
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 ...
To think, feel, talk and move, neurons send messages through electrical signals in the brain and spinal cord. This intricate ...
