Researchers identify two key proteins that allow chandelier cells to connect with excitatory neurons. This "handshake" regulates brain signals and, when disrupted, may lead to epilepsy or autism.

New research reveals how a class of neurons that help coordinate communication in the brain link up with their target cells, identifying two molecules that must be present before synapses, the ...

Researchers from the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience have, for the first time, witnessed nerve plasticity in the axon in motion. Our nerve cells communicate through rapid transmission of ...

Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain’s neuronal connections and, as a result, in signal transmission between neurons. For the first time, DZNE researchers have observed an ...
