The synapses and network topology enhance neural synchronization and anti-interference, enabling the bio-inspired brain model to mimic biological noise resilience effectively. This study numerically ...

As synaptic changes of specific memories came into view with greater clarity, patterns started to reveal rules governing how the brain decides which synapses to make stronger or weaker when storing a ...

An ionic electrochemical-reaction-based two-terminal synaptic device (Ionic Synapse) is developed for improved weight updating in hardware-based neuromorphic systems. The developed ionic synapse ...

Inspired by biological vision, optoelectronic synaptic devices could be used to integrate perception, information storage, and processing, opening up possibilities for multifunctional sensing systems.

Are there differences between the spectral power of extracellular potentials associated with oscillatory inputs arriving onto active or passive structures through chemical synapses vs. gap junctions?

To understand how these brain cells exchange information through their synapses (junctions to exchange chemical 'messages'), the team of Prof. Joris de Wit (VIB-KU Leuven Center for Brain and ...

Knockdown studies of synaptic scaffold protein Dsyd-1 and Liprin-α revealed the suppression of synapse formation. Moreover, Side-IV protein interaction with Dsyd-1 led to the formation of an active ...

SynapShot, developed by an international research team, marks a major advancement in neuroscience by enabling real-time, live observation of synaptic changes in the brain. The human brain contains ...

Synapses are points of contact between axonal nerve terminals (the pre-synapse) and post-synaptic neurons. At these synapses, the electrical impulse is converted into chemical messengers that are ...

Synaptic vesicles are the membrane vesicles that contain messengers and are stored at each synapse to convert electrical signals into chemical signals.
