Synaptic plasticity is the biological process by which specific patterns of synaptic activity result in changes in synaptic strength and is thought to contribute to learning and memory. Both pre ...

We developed an iPSC-derived microglia-neuron coculture system and high-throughput flow cytometry readout for synaptic pruning to enable parallel CRISPRi-based screening of phagocytosis of beads, ...

New research reveals that individual neurons follow multiple learning rules simultaneously, challenging the long-held belief that synaptic plasticity operates uniformly throughout the brain. Using ...

Neuroscientists who have closely studied these alterations, known as "synaptic plasticity," have identified numerous molecular processes causing such plasticity. Yet an understanding of the "rules ...

During this time, the brain undergoes synaptic pruning, a natural process that eliminates weak synaptic connections to enhance efficiency. Disruptions in this process have been linked to psychosis.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the launch of an initiative to discover the cause of autism, claiming that “By September, we ...

Neuroscientists who have closely studied these alterations, known as "synaptic plasticity," have identified numerous molecular processes causing such plasticity. Yet an understanding of the "rules ...

I must admit to always opting for bypass pruning shears when I’m gardening. I use them as an all-round tool to prune my plants, and they normally see me through most tasks. However, not all ...
