It captures exceptionally detailed images of synapses and the neurons they belong to, and enables the exact reconstruction of neural circuits. The process involved slicing a portion of the cortex ...

To run deep neural networks ... evolutionary algorithm to search over the space of logic gates and automatically generate a classifier circuit with maximized training prediction accuracy, which ...

Researchers led by the University of California, Irvine are the first to reveal how two neural circuits located in the brain's retrosplenial cortex are directly linked to spatial navigation and ...

The first set of experiments in the paper used multiple methods for tracing neural circuits to see whether and how cells in ...

Our brains can do math, employ logic, explore abstractions and think critically ... The other possibility is that the kinds of neural circuits that support vertebrate intelligence evolved ...

the amygdala–hippocampus–medial prefrontal cortex circuit. This suggests that while the disorders affect different parts of the brain, they all share vulnerabilities within a common neural network.

The results in children mirrored those observed in the mouse models. The connectivity of the neural circuit between the superior colliculus and the ventral tegmental area in the brain was predictive ...

The team next attempted to trace the neural circuitry that transmitted the photoreceptors ... but that the identification of this pathway does not discard other potential photoreceptors and circuits ...
