A Protein that Pulls the Brake on Nerve Growth

admin News November 4, 2019November 4, 2019

Bonn/Germany, October 31, 2019. During embryonic development, nerve cells form thin, long extensions, which they use to wire up a complex network, the brain. Scientists from the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) in Bonn have now identified a protein

Rabies viruses reveal wiring in transparent brains

Scientists under the leadership of the University of Bonn have harnessed rabies viruses for assessing the connectivity of nerve cell transplants: coupled with a green fluorescent protein, the viruses show where replacement cells engrafted into mouse brains have connected to

Speed data for the brain’s navigation system

Bonn (Germany), December 6th, 2016. In order to guide us accurately through space, the brain needs a “sense” of the speed of our movement. But how do such stimuli actually reach the brain? Researchers at the German Center for Neurodegenerative

Dysfunction of Somatostatin-Positive Interneurons Associated with Memory Deficits in an Alzheimer’s Disease Model

admin News October 27, 2016August 15, 2017

In a study published in the journal Neuron, researchers from the group of Dr. Martin Fuhrmann report on the role of hippocampal interneurons in Alzheimer’s disease. They identify synaptic rewiring deficits on the input and output side of O-LM interneurons

Local and thalamic origins of correlated ongoing and sensory-evoked cortical activities

admin News October 27, 2016August 15, 2017

Nearby neurons in sensory cortices display correlated ongoing and sensory-evoked activity. What gives rise to this synchronous activity is mostly unknown. On the one hand cortical synchrony may reflect shared and correlated inputs from the thalamus, which is the sub-cortical structure
