Brain navigation study reveals function of an unconventional electrical-signaling mode in neurons
Navigating the world is no mean feat, especially when the world pushes back. For instance, airflow hitting a fly on its right ...
The olfactory sensory neuron (OSN) system represents a paradigm of specialised gene regulation, wherein individual neurons select and maintain a singular olfactory receptor (OR) from a vast genomic ...
