Sex-based brain differences: Structure of a single neuron in C. elegans provides new insights
Is there a difference in brain structure between men and women? If we were to find such a difference in a single neuron, would it matter? One of the most useful models for studying these questions is ...
A research team has found the three-dimensional structure of synaptic adhesion molecules, which orchestrate synaptogenesis. The research findings also propose the mechanism of synapses in its initial ...
A study has described how a gene mutation linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) disrupts the stability of neurons and “chokes off” their nuclei, impairing their function. The research, ...
