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 ...

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, ...

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, ...

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 ...

University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers, for the first time ever, have achieved patch-clamp studies of an elusive part of mammalian myelinated nerves called the Nodes of Ranvier. At the nodes, ...

THIS book is not a general treatise on vision, but in deals with some additions to visual physiology in the last fifteen years that have been derived from the study of action potentials of the retina ...

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 ...
