Researchers have developed a new generation of microelectrode-array chips for measuring nerve impulses, enabling studies of how thousands of nerve cells interact with each other. For over 15 years, ...

The original nerve impulse findings were that the rate of impulse firing governed the impact on neuronal targets, whether they be muscle or other neurons. Various labs, including my own, in the 1980s, ...

ETH researchers have developed a new generation of microelectrode- array chips for measuring nerve impulses, enabling studies of how thousands of nerve cells interact with each other. For over 15 ...

Researchers have discovered a new mechanism by which substances can open a certain type of ion channel and in this way regulate nerve impulses. The study identifies a large group of substances that ...

AT the Friday evening discourse held at the Royal Institution on February 10, Prof. A. V. Hill discussed the physical nature of the nerve impulse. The properties of the nervous system are based upon a ...

DR. ALCOCK, in his recent paper at the Royal Society, finds the rate of transmission of nerve impulses in man to be 66 metres per second. Sir Michael Foster, in his “Physiology” (1888, part i. p. 76), ...

There is a quiet intelligence within the body that most of us move through life without ever consciously noticing. The post ...

One of the greatest, relatively underappreciated, discoveries in all of science was the discovery of the nerve impulse in the 1930s by the British Lord Adrian. Adrian did win a Nobel Prize for his ...

For over 15 years, ETH Professor Andreas Hierlemann and his group have been developing microelectrode-array chips that can be used to precisely excite nerve cells in cell cultures and to measure ...

Researchers at Linköping University, Sweden, have discovered a new mechanism by which substances can open a certain type of ion channel and thereby regulate nerve impulses. The study, published in the ...
