Scientists have built an artificial neuron that’s so realistic it fires, learns, and responds to chemical signals just like the real thing – a breakthrough that could transform computing, medicine, ...

Comparing a map of the neurons in a nematode worm - the connectome - with a map of how signals travel across those neurons has revealed a surprising number of differences, suggesting that the structur ...

This important work fills a gap in the characterization of motor architecture and chemical coupling of the male reproductive system, crucial to understanding male reproduction and fertility. The ...

Pyramidal neurons have basal and apical dendrites, including an apical tuft. This preserved core structure suggests that they have conserved core functions, whereas structural variation in other areas ...

A drug called riluzole, commonly used to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other motor neuron diseases, could also assist in recovery from spinal cord injuries, according to research from ...

CBSE Class 11 Biology Important Diagrams: The study of biology is impossible without the use of flowcharts and diagrams. These illustrations make it easier for us to comprehend the complex ideas of ...

Motor neuron disease usually refers to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, but it can also refer to other kind of neurodegenerative disease that affect the motor neurons, such as progressive primary ...
