A molecule that eliminates neural synapses offers insights into rare genetic disorders such as Angelman syndrome and autism spectrum disorders.
Researchers from the University of Tokyo reveal how the presynaptic Ube3a E3 ligase, a causal factor in Angelman syndrome, eliminates neural chat. The study helps find a better drug target for the Angelman syndrome treatment.

Solving combinatorial optimization problems with chaotic amplitude control
Among the theories needed to bridge machine and human intelligence, the Ising model has proven useful for capturing mesoscopic neuronal interactions by simplifying their activity to binary decisions. In this model, neural states repr… More
