Researchers discover synaptic logic for connections between two brain hemispheres

Friday, January 18, 2019 - 20:00 in Biology & Nature

Researchers at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience have developed a new combination of technologies that allows them to identify the functional properties of individual synapses that link the two hemispheres and determine how they are arranged within a neuron’s dendritic field. Each of the 20 billion neurons in the cerebral cortex receives thousands […]
