Behavioral output of neural networks depends on a delicate balance between excitatory and inhibitory synaptic connections. However, it is not known whether network formation and stability is constrained by the sign of ...

Al/TiO2/Au memory junctions grown by reactive sputtering were fabricated and characterized. Usual hysteretic features were obtained, spanning an order of magnitude ratio between high and low resistance states. We explored ...

Understanding neuron connections is a great challenge, which is needed to solve many important problems in neurobiology and neuroengineering for recreation of brain functions and efficient biorobotics. In particular, a ...

Expression of Dlg4, which encodes the postsynaptic receptor clustering protein PSD95, is decreased in ageing and Alzheimer's disease. Bustos et al. engineer a zinc finger protein that modifies Dlg4 expression by changing ...

The present paper introduces a new model of fuzzy neuron, one which increases the computational power of the artificial neuron, turning it also into a symbolic processing device. This model proposes the synapsis to be ...

We fabricate a biometric laser fiber synaptic sensor to transmit information from one neuron cell to the other by an optical way. The optical synapse is constructed on the base of an erbium-doped fiber laser, whose pumped ...
