Researchers from the National Institute for Physiological Sciences (NIPS) in Japan revealed that neurons in the deepest part of the cortex exhibit experience-dependent plasticity The mammalian ...
How biological neural networks reliably process information in the presence of spontaneous activity remains controversial. In mouse primary visual cortex (V1), stimulus-evoked and spontaneous activity ...
It has been known for nearly 20 years that slow, synchronous electrical waves in the brain during deep sleep support the formation of memories. Why that is, was previously unknown. How do permanent ...
The role of developmental cell death in the formation of brain circuits is not well understood. Cajal-Retzius cells constitute a major transient neuronal population in the mammalian neocortex, which ...
Perhaps our most defining characteristic as a species, the six-layered human cortex, hosts billions of neural connections that bestow Homo sapiens with higher-order thinking. But how does this ...
Scientists have identified previously unknown neural modules in the brain that control movement and adapt during skill learning. Their findings challenge long-held ideas about how the brain organizes ...
