Dendrites have been under the microscope, since 1888. We took it further and put dendrites under 3 different microscopes (ExM, STED, EM) and reconstructed entire branches to reveal fine nanoscale details. #SuperResolution #ElectronMicroscopy #Morphology

The calcitron: A simple neuron model that implements many learning rules via the calcium control hypothesis
Author summary Researchers have developed various learning rules for artificial neural networks, but it is unclear how these rules relate to the brain’s natural processes. This study focuses on the ca...

Human cortical pyramidal neurons are larger, with more elaborate branching, and distinct nonlinear biophysical properties compared to rat cortical pyramidal neurons.
Are they more functionally complex? Could that boost the human brain’s computational power? and is that what makes us human? (1/11)
