New research explains how the shapes of neurons can be classified using mathematical methods from the field of algebraic topology. Neuroscientists can now start building a formal catalogue for all the ...
Brain's tree of cell types (neurons) describes the general building principle of neural circuits as per a study at Baylor College Of Medicine, published in the journal Nature. A tree of life shows the ...
Neurons, also known as nerve cells, send and receive signals throughout your nervous system. While neurons have a lot in common with other types of cells, they’re structurally and functionally unique.
