New research suggests that psychedelic drugs may work by strengthening specific brain connections linked to memory and cognition.

During prolonged trains of presynaptic action potentials (APs), synaptic release reaches a stable level that reflects the speed of replenishment of the readily releasable pool (RRP). Determining the ...

A research team has resolved a 50-year-old controversy in neuroscience. By employing a self-developed, time-resolved ...

As summarized in Science, the study describes a unified “kiss-shrink-run” mechanism of synaptic transmission. This model ...

Millisecond ‘kiss and run’ exchange – captured in a China lab on the world’s first camera equipped to do it – solves a 50-year-old debate.

Discovery shows how two different Rab proteins direct the delivery of key components needed for memory formation ...

Synaptic pruning is a crucial neurodevelopmental process through which the brain refines its neural circuitry by systematically eliminating excess or weak synaptic connections. During early childhood ...

Physical reservoir computing (PRC) utilizing synaptic devices shows significant promise for edge AI. Researchers from the Tokyo University of Science have introduced a novel self-powered ...

The designation may make ALTO-101 eligible for more frequent meetings with the FDA, as well as possible accelerated approval and priority review, provided relevant criteria are me ...
