Activity-dependent models for cortical simple-cell receptive field development predict specific patterns of correlated neural activity within the visual pathway, such as a Mexican hat–shaped pattern ...

The cell nucleus is the site of many important biological functions of the eukaryotic cell. These processes include transcription, replication, splicing and ribosome biogenesis. The effect of these ...

Scientists have found a new way to 'see' inside the simplest atomic nuclei to better understand the 'glue' that holds the building blocks of matter together. The results come from collisions of ...

Deep within each half of the brain lies the caudate nucleus. It’s responsible for processing visual information, movement, and memory. Dysfunction may cause conditions like dementia or Parkinson’s ...
