Aided by the black reaction, Golgi discovered the branching of the axon and found that, contrary to Gerlach's theory, dendrites are not fused in a network.

Some believe that when a person dies nothing remains that death is the end of personality Others believe in the continuity of life That the present incarnation is only a link in the chain of one s ent ...

Dendrites of fast-spiking basket cells (FS BCs) impact neural circuit functions in brain with both supralinear and sublinear integration strategies. Diverse spatial synaptic inputs and active ...

A key feature that appears to facilitate neuroplasticity is the distinct nature of neurons compared to other cells.

Most of these polyneuronally innervated muscle fibers become mononeuronally innervated by an axon in one or other of the two nerves, through competitive synapse elimination.

A new study published in Science has found that neurons in the brain do not follow a single strategy when learning. Instead, different parts of the same neuron—its upper and lower branches—adjust ...
