Powerful chemical biological techniques have now been developed to decipher the dynamic stability of the synapses and to further interrogate the complex properties of neuronal circuits.
Neuromorphic circuits and systems, drawing inspiration from the biological frameworks of neural networks, present a radical ...
Multiple interconnected neurons form a neural circuit and use electrical and chemical ... They are the most common neuron found in mammalian bodies. Neuron Function Synapses Neural synapses are ...
We specifically focus on the role of microglia and astrocytes in reorganization of synapses and neural circuits. We aim to reveal the underlying mechanisms by which the brain adapts to its environment ...
Modifications of the intrinsic currents in neuronal circuits are more likely to result in loss of function than changes in synaptic strength.
Our research investigates how these liquid-like properties contribute to the main function of the neuron in synaptic ...
can function like a biological neuron and synapse when operated in a specific, unconventional way. Led by Associate Professor Mario Lanza from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering ...
The brain’s remarkable ability to learn and adapt is rooted in its capacity to modify the connections within its neural circuits—synaptic plasticity—in which specific synapses are altered to ...
