WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Researchers have learned the mechanisms behind a common type of failure in lithium-ion batteries caused by the formation and growth of “dendrites,” findings that could aid in ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA -- Neurons in the human brain receive electrical signals from thousands of other cells, and long neural extensions called dendrites play a critical role in incorporating all of that ...

Researcher Yang He adds a sample to the environmental transmission electron microscope. He is one of the researchers Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory that discovered the ...

Researchers have demonstrated how dendrites -- branch-like extensions that protrude from neurons -- help neurons perform computations on information that comes in from other parts of the brain. Within ...

Battery dendrites are not caused by electrical origins, but instead have mechanical sources. The dendrites propagate due to fracture of the electrolyte and subsequent crack filling-in. Stresses on the ...

While the reason why Samsung Galaxy Note 7s have been catching fire has yet to be confirmed, the focus is on the device’s lithium-ion batteries. And those familiar with this technology have begun ...

Dendritic cells are divided into Type 1 (DC1) and Type 2 (DC2) dendritic cells. Each type fulfills different functions: DC1 provide an immune response to bacteria and viruses, DC2 protect against ...

The brain is an incredibly complex organ. It powers and controls every bodily function, processes thoughts and memories, and learns and adapts to whatever we do and wherever we go. While there is a ...

Scientists at the Princeton University Branch of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research have identified novel mechanisms by ...
