Currently no therapies can stop the spread of tau aggregates in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease. Our human neuron model of tau spread overcomes the limitations of previous models and ...

The new model developed by Flatiron Institute researchers proposes that biological neurons have more control over their surroundings than previously thought, something that could be replicated in the ...

Neurons transmit signals through the body as through an electrical circuit. (Credit: iStock/ktsimage) An electrical circuit inspired by the functionality of a neuron can operate in the quantum regime, ...

Studying how brain cells respond to signals from their neighbors can aid the understanding of cognition and development. However, experimentally measuring the brain's activity is complicated. Neuron ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract In this paper an attempt is made to deduce the principal operating characteristics that a neuron would need in order to qualify as the basic ...

The study shows the Izhikevich neuron model allows the simulation of both periodic and quasi-periodic responses in neurons at lower computational cost. Studying how brain cells respond to signals from ...
