Researchers at University of Tsukuba have achieved a significant breakthrough by employing scatterometry, a technique originally used to measure semiconductor microstructures, for the analysis of ...

Scientists have developed a pioneering new method that uses deep learning and a new technique called 'targeted augmentation' to track neurons in moving and deforming animals. Recent advances allow ...

Researchers propose that placozoans, one of the simplest kinds of animals, may contain the blueprint for the neurons of more complex creatures. By Sam Jones For hundreds of millions of years, ...

A small molecule known as 10H-phenothiazine reduced the loss of motor neurons, the nerve cells that are lost in SMA, in ...

Altering a protein in the neurons that coordinate a rattlesnake’s movement made a slow slither neuron more like a speedy rattle neuron, showing one way evolution can generate new ways of moving. In ...

In jellyfish and sea anemones, neurons accumulate DNA damage while animals are awake and repair that damage during sleep.

Placozoans, animals so simple they look like blobby pancakes, have been found to contain cells that may hold the ancestors of modern neurons. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn ...

Two-dimensional projection of 3D volumetric brain activity recordings in C. elegans. Green: genetically encoded Calcium indicator, various colors: segmented and tracked neurons. Recent advances allow ...
