or oscillatory multiplexing buffer, model28,69,70for working memory (see Fig.1a). The model proposes that individual items in visual working memory are encoded by local neural ensembles firing at a gamma frequency, with the order of firing of each ensemble coordinated by the phase of a ...
When engaging in physical contact, our emotional response hinges not only on the nuanced sensory details and the receptive properties of the skin but also

A single corneal sensory neuron can support an extremely large number of individual nerve endings. This number differs considerably among different mammalian corneas e.g. 200 in mouse (de Castro et al., 1998; Felipe et al., 1999) and 3000 in rabbit (Marfurt et al., 1989; Rozsa and Be...
Satellite Cells are neuroglia, but what is it's function? Satellite Cells work to support groups of cell bodies of neurons within ganglia of the PNS. This is in the Dorsal Root Ganglion. amytrophic lateral sclerosis is a motor neuron disease, what is going on there?
These prescribed behavioral regimes and specific underlying neural responses have allowed neuroscientists to map the discrete activation of sensory-processing neuron sub-types sensitive to specific cues, including looming-sensitive neurons, that encode similar behavioral escape responses in all animals studied...
The discovery, found in the Feb. 2010 issue of the journalNeuron,goes against a long-held assumption that the signaling of a sound’s appearance and its subsequent disappearance are both handled by the same pathway. The new finding, which supports an emerging theory that a separate set of sy...
