Strengthening and weakening of synapses are a fundamental information processing unit within the neuronal circuit of the brain. It has been shown that the most abundant scaffold protein of the postsynaptic density (PSD), ...

Imaging synaptic activity in the form of calcium transients occurring in dendritic spines is advancing our understanding of nerve cell function beyond what can be achieved using electrophysiological methods alone. I have ...

MicroRNAs are noncoding transcripts with crucial functions in probably every organ system. The roles of miRNAs in neuronal processes and cognitive functions are recently being appreciated. The discovery of neuronal activity ...
