Research reveals unique features of brain cells linked to neurodevelopmental conditions
Specific brain cells known as layer 5 pyramidal neurons play a vital role in how our brains process information. Research by the team of Prof. Joris de Wit (VIB-KU Leuven) and colleagues highlights ...

The response of single units in cuneate and gracile nuclei to cutaneous stimulation can be modified by prior stimulation of the motor cortex of the cat. Both excitation and inhibition of these neurons ...
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 87, No. 15 (Aug., 1990), pp. 5832-5836 (5 pages) For the past 3 decades, functional characterizations of the ...
The cerebral cortex processes sensory information via a complex network of neural connections. How are these signals modulated to refine perception? A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) has ...
