A recent review published in Engineering explores the construction and potential applications of spinal cord and peripheral ...
Researchers demonstrate an artificial neuron made of conductive plastics that can perform advanced functions similar to those of biological nerve cells. “Mimicking the behaviour of biological neurons ...
Researchers in Göttingen, Germany, have elucidated the structure and function of otoferlin, a protein that plays a crucial ...
Using microelectrodes, scientists could show that cells in the retina play different roles. The produce different signals, which is important for the processing of visual information. These ...
The retina is often referred to as an "outpost of the brain"—after all, important steps in visual signal processing do not ...
