The human brain contains billions of neurons, specialized nerve cells that communicate with each other via electrical and ...

Neurons are known to communicate and integrate information they receive from their dendrites, branch-like structures extending from their body. In contrast, the activity in astrocytes, a class of star ...

A new study reveals that axon formation is driven by an internal molecular zipper protein complex called Arp2/3.

A team of researchers at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) and The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) developed a computational method that improves the tracking of neurogenesis as neurons ...

3D morphological analysis of neurons often requires using different imaging modalities, capturing multiple types of neurons and inspecting neurons in a range of densities. These complexities make it ...
