A research team led by Dr. Àlex Bayés, Head of the Molecular Physiology of the Synapse Group at the Institut de Recerca Sant Pau (IR Sant Pau), has achieved what for decades had been an elusive goal: ...
The laboratory of Ege Kavalali, professor and chair of the Department of Pharmacology, published a paper in Nature Communications that determined that liquid-liquid phase separation plays a key role ...
Whether picking up a small object like a pen or coordinating different body parts, the cerebellum in the brain performs essential functions for controlling our movement. Researchers at the Institute ...
Synaptic inputs onto the dendrites and cell body integrate and trigger action potentials (APs) at the axon initial segment (AIS). The AIS receives GABAergic synaptic inputs; however, the structure and ...
Schematic representation of axonal transport vesicles (blue) carrying presynaptic proteins (SV and AZ proteins). Kinesin motor proteins (KIF1A) attach these vesicles and carry them along the axons to ...
The mammalian auditory periphery transforms sound into neural signals via specialised hair cells and their ribbon-type synapses. Inner hair cells convert mechanical vibrations into receptor potentials ...
Scientists at Université de Montréal and its affiliated Montreal Clinical Research Institute (IRCM) have uncovered unique roles for a protein complex in the structural organization and function of ...
A technical paper titled “3D Neuromorphic Hardware with Single Thin-Film Transistor Synapses Over Single Thin-Body Transistor Neurons by Monolithic Vertical Integration” was published by researchers ...
