Over the course of their lives, humans and other animals typically learn to avoid situations and stimuli that are dangerous ...

The study introduces new tools for measuring the intracellular calcium concentration close to transmitter release sites, which may be relevant for synaptic vesicle fusion and replenishment. This ...

Synaptic transmission is the biological process by which a neuron communicates with a target cell across a synapse. Chemical synaptic transmission involves the release of a neurotransmitter from ...

The synaptic proteome can be shaped by proteins transported from the neuronal soma and/or by mRNAs that are delivered to synapses where proteins are locally synthesized. This last mechanism is known ...

In neuronal cells, the regulation of RNA is crucial for the spatiotemporal control of gene expression, but how the correct localization, levels, and function of synaptic proteins are achieved is not ...

In a development for artificial intelligence, researchers have unveiled a synaptic device array that shows promise for enhancing artificial visual systems. This innovative array, measuring a compact 0 ...

The research was conducted by Professor Ham Dong-hee and his team. Although synaptic connections can be visualized using an electron microscope, they cannot be measured or recorded. On the other ...

Synaptics® Incorporated (Nasdaq: SYNA) today announced that on February 17, 2025, it will grant restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards to new employees who joined Synaptics in connection with ...

Harvard researchers have mapped and cataloged more than 70,000 synaptic connections from about 2,000 rat neurons, using a silicon chip capable of recording small yet telltale synaptic signals from a ...
