Let's take a look at how to observe cells under a microscope. No prizes for guessing the first thing you'll need: a microscope. But don't worry if you don't have one of your own. Ask your school ...

Researchers have discovered a new type of neuron that plays a fundamental role in recognition memory -- how the brain registers the difference between new and familiar objects and forms long-term ...

Plastic nanoparticles (green), visible under a microscope, co-mingling with protein aggregates(red) in neuronal lysosomes (blue). Typically, concentrations of the protein aggregates are so small ...

In this technique, an ultra-thin glass pipette is attached to a single neuron under a microscope to measure or stimulate the cell's electrical activity. The study utilized an advanced form of this ...

Neurons are cells that act as the brain's fundamental ... By capturing images under the microscope at a high speed of 250 frames per second and using cutting-edge image processing, the researchers ...
