Scientists at the California Institute of Technology have uncovered a surprising truth about the speed of human thought: our ...

A new study reveals that humans think at a rate of 10 bits per second, while sensory systems process a billion bits per ...

Synaptic configurations play a key role in how the nervous system processes sensory information to generate behavioral ...

while simultaneously recording the activity of neurons in brain regions involved in sensory processing. When they compared ...

The brain processes 10 bits per second, much slower than sensory input. Early brains evolved for survival, limiting human ...

The team also identified two ion channels essential for changing membrane voltages triggered by sensory stimulation. A ...

Researchers from Kyushu University have developed an innovative technique to non-invasively measure two key signals, membrane ...

But the rate that we gather sensory data is 100 million times faster than our thought processes, making our brains champions ...

The researchers wondered if certain types of neurons in the skin are particularly important for processing the information ... and we stop perceiving it. One sensory neuron, which seems important ...

Tohoku University scientists created lab-grown neural networks using microfluidic devices, mimicking natural brain activity ...

During the development of the olfactory epithelium (OE), olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) express only one member of the odorant receptor (OR) gene family, and O ...

while simultaneously recording the activity of neurons in brain regions involved in sensory processing. When they compared the responses of neurons located in two distinct brain regions ...
