When we needed to speak with people who weren't within shouting distance, we developed the telephone. We're constantly striving to push ourselves further. Forum for all neuro-things => from neuron to brain. These neurons connect and communicate with each other through a dizzying network of something like 100 trillion synapses. When we couldn't see far enough, we invented the telescope. During brain development, neurons have to connect to each other, which they do by extending their long axons to touch one another. [Ref] Radial Glial Neural Progenitors Regulate Nascent Brain Vascular Network Stabilization Via Inhibition Neuro? Research published in the journal Neuron shows that NMDA receptors on dopamine neurons in the brain's basal ganglia are essential to habit formation. One of the brain circuits that enable us to relate to other people is the “mirror neuron” system. Neurobiologists has converted a brain neuron from one type to another through direct lineage reprogramming.This can open up developments for neurological diseases such as ALS.
