The collective activity of a population of neurons, beyond the properties of individual cells, is
crucial for many brain functions. A fundamental question is how activity correlations between …

During learning, the brain modifies synapses to improve behaviour. In the cortex, synapses
are embedded within multilayered networks, making it difficult to determine the effect of an …

Since the beginning of information processing by electronic components, the nervous
system has served as a metaphor for the organization of computational primitives. Brain …

Synapses are essential for the transmission of neural signals. Synaptic plasticity allows for
changes in synaptic strength, enabling the brain to learn from experience. With the rapid …

The active electrical properties of dendrites shape neuronal input and output and are
fundamental to brain function. However, our knowledge of active dendrites has been almost …

In 1986, electron microscopy was used to reconstruct by hand the entire nervous system of a
roundworm, the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Since this landmark study, high …

Sensory neurons within skin form an interface between the external physical reality and the
inner tactile perception. This interface enables sensory information to be organized …

Multicompartment emulation is an essential step to enhance the biological realism of
neuromorphic systems and to further understand the computational power of neurons. In this …

Neuromorphic electronics draw attention as innovative approaches that facilitate hardware
implementation of next‐generation artificial intelligent system including neuromorphic in …

Dendrites have always fascinated researchers: from the artistic drawings by Ramon y Cajal
to the beautiful recordings of today, neuroscientists have been striving to unravel the …
