Emulation of these neuronal dynamics, including maintenance of the equilibrium potential, the transient dynamics and the process ... firing rate of individual neurons. Figure 1: Artificial neuron ...

The result of a faulty neural thermostat could be an epileptic seizure, catatonia or autism. This thermostat-like control of neuron firing has never been observed in a live, complex animal — until now ...

Neurons talk to one another using electricity. If you could hear these impulses, they might sound like constant, rapid-fire ...

and spatial navigation -- and is involved in coordinating the electrical firing of nerve cells. Dendrites, which branch from the cell body of the neuron, play a key role in the communication ...

Professor Erik De Schutter, Computation Neuroscience Unit These studies showed that the firing rate of a Purkinje neuron affected how it reacted to signals fired from other neighboring neurons.

The team has found evidence that individual neurons can process multiple ... found that an individual neuron would respond to each of the two sounds with different firing rates.

and spatial navigation -- and is involved in coordinating the electrical firing of nerve cells. Dendrites, which branch from the cell body of the neuron, play a key role in the communication ...

A neuron has an active membrane around ... The ability to see how neurons are firing could radically speed up the testing process. You can read the full study, titled Optical recording of action ...

Researchers have developed a “laser-powered artificial neuron,” which is like a supercharged ... Interestingly, the team leveraged this speed to process datasets of 100 million heartbeats ...
