Recent technological advances facilitate the reconstruction of complete brain connectomes in small organisms and partial ...

A new study on the detriments of too many synaptic connections in the mouse cerebellum by neuroscientists at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis corroborates previous human ...

To probe for the existence of synaptic connections in brain slices, Triplett and his colleagues at Columbia and UC Berkeley used a technique known as holographic optogenetics, which uses light to ...

International researchers develop NTAC, an AI that identifies neuronal types with 90% accuracy based purely on synaptic connectivity, outperforming traditional shape-based methods.
