Dual-technique breakthrough: By merging SMLM’s ultra-high resolution with SIM’s ability to capture motion, researchers can build a richer picture of neuron structure and activity. Impact on ...

The structure, made of repeating rings of proteins, was previously known for helping neurons maintain their shape. The scientists said they now understand it plays a far more active role by deciding ...

Closely related subtypes of dopamine-releasing neurons may play entirely separate roles in processing sensory information, depending on their physical structure. New research from the Institute of ...

In mouse brain cells, and in follow-up work involving worms and human cortical neurons, the team found that many axons ...

New research shows our brains store not just facts, but also movement patterns, in structured, graph-like mental maps. These mental graphs connect visual cues with motor actions, and insights from ...
