At most, the scientists had expected that each single motor neuron was hardwired to produce one simple motion—for ... motor ...

Researchers developed a nanoscale quantum resonant tunnelling diode that mimics a sensory neuron, detecting light, processing ...

Receptor in the skin detects a stimulus (the change in temperature). Sensory neuron sends electrical impulses to a relay neuron, which is located in the spinal cord of the CNS. Relay neurons ...

When a neuron receives a stimulus ... could lead to a better understanding of sensory processing in the central nervous system, not only in simple model systems like nematodes, but in higher ...
