A new breakthrough technology, co-developed by UCL scientists, that simultaneously records and manipulates neuron activity ...

To map the mammalian brain and its various functions with increasing precision, neuroscientists rely on high-resolution imaging techniques and other advanced experimental tools. These now include high ...

Smaller plastic particles have more effects on neurons, the key information processing cells of the brain, new research from ...

Different neuronal cells have a diverse range of activity patterns, but the cause has remained unclear. In mice, maps of brain-wide inputs to individual neurons that do or do not show activity ...

Neuropixels Opto is a single probe combining electrophysiology and optogenetics that simultaneously records and controls ...

Neurons, the uber-connected nerve cells that act as a main switchboard for the brain, are central to some incredibly complicated processes. They make it possible to think, walk, speak, and breathe.

A new study uses optogenetics to induce localized sleep in awake mice, reversing memory loss from sleep deprivation.

Researchers have developed a new technology capable of simultaneously recording and manipulating neuronal activity deep within the brain, offering what the ...

Researchers at Linköping University have developed a new type of pipette that can deliver ions to individual neurons without affecting the sensitive extracellular milieu. Researchers at Linköping ...

A project led by ETH Zurich and the University of Zurich has developed a platform detecting both optical and MRI data from biological tissues. Christened HyFMRI and described in Light Science & ...
