Neuron: Uncover the molecular mechanisms by which small glial cells shape neural circuits in the brain.
Time of Update: 2020-10-06
Photo Source: In Lucas Headle's study, researchers delved into the link between biology and the outside world, and researcher Lucas Cheadle says we are very interested in studying how neural circuits respond to sensory experiences; It's done, but it does require strong feedback from the environment to promote brain maturation, and when animals interact with their surroundings, some neuron connections are eliminated and others strengthened, a process that can last up to a decade after birth.
