In general, higher-order communication is a hard concept to grasp in the context ... relationships between pairs of neurons. “The firing of several nearby neurons can lead to an avalanching cascade of ...

Researchers still haven't decided how best to classify all the different types, but they are increasingly trying to map ... concept — there was one neuron, for example, that began firing at ...

Complex or abstract ideas emerge as a result of the firing of many of these nerve ... we also have a specialized type of cell called a concept neuron, which does what was long thought to be ...

This is in contrast to implicit representations in, for example, V1, in which the firing of a single neuron encodes local ... It is possible that concept cells cease to encode a given concept ...

The genetically altered neurons use a gene from a Dead Sea microorganism that produces a protein that fluoresces when exposed to the electrical signal in a neuron ... a spatial map of how signals ...

But it could be even more important than that: Because some scientists hypothesize the enteric nervous system actually evolved before the central nervous system, the neuron firing pattern in your ...

Neurons are complicated, but the basic functional concept is ... this persistent firing, and it all seems to be happening in the axon. Spruston and his team stimulated a neuron for one to two ...

The responses were abstract. For example, the neuron firing to Halle Berry responded to several different pictures of her and even to the letters of her name, but not to other people or names.

In a study published November 8 in Neuron, researchers link spontaneous pain in mice to coordinated firing of nonadjacent neurons in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG), which are collections of sensory ...
