Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have demonstrated that a single, standard silicon transistor, the fundamental building block of microchips used in computers, smartphones ...

Since a neuron’s pre- and postsynaptic nerve terminals are often ensheathed by astrocytes, which participate in synaptic signal processing, the term tripartite synapse was coined (Araque et al., 1999) ...

After using Linux for a while, switching from one distribution to another becomes a fairly easy task. You know the landscape, ...

Neuroscientists believe that synaptic plasticity, as these changes are called, plays an important role in storing memories. However, the rules governing when and how much synapses change are not ...
