Scientists used a tool called SynTrogo to edit brain circuits in mice, showing that trimming select synapses can make ...

In the brain, highly specific connections called synapses link nerve cells and transmit electrical signals in a targeted manner. Despite decades of research, how synapses form during brain development ...

Researchers developed SynTrogo, a molecular tool enabling targeted synapse removal via engineered neuron–astrocyte ...

For the first time, researchers have confirmed that selectively pruning certain synapses in the brain can paradoxically ...

Cambridge researchers develop hafnium-oxide memristors to significantly reduce AI energy consumption by merging memory and ...

First Discovery of How Somatostatin Converts Brain Immune Cells into a Protective State - Mechanism Found to Overcome Clinical Limits Using FDA-Approved Drugs ...

A new technique tags neurons with RNA barcodes to identify synaptic connections through sequencing. It allows rapid mapping of brain circuits, revealing new connectivity patterns, and aiding ...

By tagging neurons with molecular “barcodes,” researchers mapped connections among thousands of neurons in the mouse brain ...
