Neuron models provide a non-invasive way to investigate the brain, but most existing models are either computationally intensive or cannot model complex neuronal responses.

Using a well-accepted model of a neuron, connected up as part of a neural network, researchers tried to determine if neuronal avalanches could be described by neutral behavior. And this is where ...

The study shows the Izhikevich neuron model allows the simulation of both periodic and quasi-periodic responses in neurons at lower computational cost. Skip to content. Menu.

Neuroscientists want to understand how individual neurons encode information that allows us to distinguish objects, like telling a leaf apart from a rock. But they have struggled to build ...

In many cases, the activity of a neuron isn't only set by the signals it's receiving right at that instant. Instead, it has the biochemical equivalent of short-term memory.

Researchers have developed a 3D-printed model that mimics brain tissue, using nanopillar arrays to guide neuron growth. The model replicates real neural networks and could help researchers study ...

Scientists have created key parts of synthetic brain cells that can hold cellular "memories" for milliseconds. The achievement could one day lead to computers that work like the human brain.

Neuroscientists have made a rosy discovery: a new type of human brain cell. The newest neuron has been named the "rosehip neuron," thanks to its bushy appearance. The brain cell, with its unique ...
