Researchers have investigated how highly organized patterns of neural activity emerge during development. Published in Nature Communications, an international collaboration between researchers at the ...
For over a decade, neuroscientists have been trying to figure out how neurogenesis (the birth of new neurons) and neuroplasticity (the malleability of neural circuits) work together to reshape how we ...
Oligodendrocyte Precursor Cells, or OPCs (the purple and green blobs above), prune unneeded synapses (the silver streaks) in the brain’s visual cortex in response to new information and experiences.
