A new tool to model peripheral nerve stimulation rapidly discovered optimal electrical waveforms (white traces) which, when delivered through the metal contacts of a cuff electrode placed on the vagus ...

Are artificial neurons underestimating the power of their biological models? Ten years after initial theoretical predictions, researchers have demonstrated that an isolated biological neuron can ...

Design and application of living hydrogels as portable energy devices for neuron stimulation. a) 3D bioprinting of living hydrogels: schematic illustration depicting the 3D bioprinting process of ...

Researchers in Australia study effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation in mouse models of debilitating illness. 2-photon microscopy captures axonal segments in a living brain. Click for info.

Researchers have used a novel manufacturing technique to create a minimally invasive, customizable sensor that can wirelessly record deep brain activity down to a resolution of one or two neurons. The ...

However, this increase returned to pre-stimulation levels by the eighth day. Furthermore, in the AD mouse model, this increased turnover was comparable to the turnover levels in the WT mice seen ...
