Your every thought, memory, and movement begins here: an electric spark turned chemical message, as one neuron whispers to the next. What you’re seeing This animation captures neurotransmission, the process that allows nerve cells to communicate across microscopic gaps called synapses. When an electrical impulse reaches the end of Cell A (the presynaptic neuron), it triggers the release of neurotransmitters—tiny signaling molecules that cross the synaptic cleft and bind to receptors on Cell B (the postsynaptic neuron). 🟡 Opens ion channels that generate a new electrical signal in the next neuron 🟡 Coordinates how the brain encodes movement, emotion, and thought 🟡 Operates on millisecond precision using hundreds of molecular components 💡 The bigger picture Neurotransmission is the foundation of consciousness, a seamless conversation of electricity and chemistry happening trillions of times each second. Every sensation, decision, and memory depends on this invisible dialogue between your brain’s 86 billion neurons.

For most of neuroscience history (until the late 1980s/early 1990s), neurons were treated as the brain’s only decision-makers. That idea is changing. Astrocytes, once considered passive support cells, are now recognized as global regulators of brain state. They don’t encode individual thoughts or actions. Instead, they integrate activity across huge numbers of synapses and adjust how neural networks behave over time. By releasing modulatory signals and tracking slow changes in activity, astrocytes influence: -Alertness vs. fatigue -Stress vs. calm -Motivation vs. disengagement Importantly, they can shift brain function without rewiring neurons, by tuning the environment neurons operate in. The brain isn’t just wired. It’s regulated, and astrocytes play a central role in that regulation.

Like a stadium full of sports fans doing the wave, neurons coordinate their electrical signals in rhythmic patterns that sweep across the cortex, the brain’s outermost layer. Recent studies in humans and animals have shown these patterns, called traveling waves, can take on complex shapes, among them a rotating spiral that has been observed during deep sleep, memory retrieval, and other brain processes. A new study has now captured the fast-spinning waves spanning whole brains, offering clues to how they’re organized and what they might do. Learn more: News from Science

Did you know about 21 million people worldwide are diagnosed with #epilepsy in 2021? Epilepsy’s pathophysiology involves the aberrant electrical activity of neurons in the brain. This typically stems from an imbalance between excitatory and inhibitory neurotransmitters, with increased excitation or reduced inhibition leading to hyperactive neural networks. These abnormal electrical discharges manifest as seizures, which can vary in intensity and impact depending on the specific regions of the brain affected by this pathophysiological imbalance.🧠 .

E11 Bio is excited to unveil PRISM technology for mapping brain wiring with simple light microscopes. Today, brain mapping in humans and other mammals is bottlenecked by accurate neuron tracing. PRISM uses molecular ID codes and AI to help neurons trace themselves. We discovered a new cell barcoding approach exceeding comparable methods by more than 750x. This is the heart of PRISM. We integrated this capability with microscopy and AI image analysis to automatically trace neurons at high resolution and annotate them with molecular features. This is a key advance towards economically viable brain mapping - 95% of costs stem from neuron tracing. It is also an important step towards democratizing neuron tracing for everyday neuroscience. Solving these problems is critical for curing brain disorders, building safer and human-like AI, and even simulating brain function. In our first pilot study, we acquired a unique dataset in mouse hippocampus. Barcodes improved the accuracy of tracing genetically labelled neurons by 8x – with a clear path to 100x or more. They also permit tracing across spatial gaps – essential for mitigating tissue section loss in whole-brain scaling. Using molecular annotation, we uncover an intriguing feature of synaptic organization, demonstrating how PRISM can be used for systematic discovery 🧵

Plants don’t have nerves. But when they’re injured, they send an electrical “SOS” that looks very familiar. When a leaf is cut or bitten, glutamate (the same amino acid that acts as a neurotransmitter in humans) spills out of the damaged cells. In plants, that glutamate flips on a series of glutamate-gated receptors, triggering a rapid calcium wave that races through the stem and leaves. It’s not pain. It’s not consciousness. But it is a long-distance danger signal. And what happens next is biology at its best: • Distant leaves ramp up their defenses • Genes for protection and repair switch on • Chemical pathways shift to heal tissue and deter future damage Humans use glutamate to communicate between neurons. Plants use it to communicate between cells and tissues. Two completely different systems, one molecule playing messenger in both. A reminder that living things often solve survival problems using the same biochemical tools… even when evolution sends them down very different paths. From: Gatsby Plant Science Education Program

🇬🇧 MAGIC: MUSHROOMS MAKING MUSIC Engineers in the UK just turned fungi into musicians. By placing sensors on mushroom caps, they captured the natural electrical impulses fungi generate - and used them to control motors that play real instruments. The result? A trippy fusion of biology and sound - where mushrooms don’t just inspire the vibe, they create it. And it’s not just a party trick. Scientists believe fungal networks use these signals to communicate amongst each other. So this might not just be music by mushrooms... it could be music from them.

I've been editing this article about "brain mapping" and connectomics, and I'm just stunned by how quickly the cost estimates to map, say, a mouse brain have plummeted in just the last couple years. It actually seems feasible that we could map the entire human brain -- all 86 billion neurons, and their connections -- in this lifetime. In the 1970s, Sydney Brenner started mapping all the connections between neurons in C. elegans. His team sliced the worm into thin pieces, took photos using an electron microscope, and manually traced and reconstructed each synapse for 302 neurons total. This project took more than a decade of work, and it cost about $16,500 to reconstruct each neuron. Scaling this up to a human brain boggles the mind. Electron microscopy remained the norm in connectomics for decades, because it was the only option available to see synapses at a resolution high enough to be able to trace their paths. Each electron microscope costs several hundreds of thousands of dollars, though, and you need lots of them to map even a mouse brain in a reasonable timeframe. In 2023, the Wellcome Trust released a report estimating how long, and how expensive, it would be to map the mouse connectome (~70M neurons). They estimated that imaging alone would cost $200-300M, and that proofreading (or ensuring that traces between neurons are correct) would cost $7-21 BILLION. (A human can only manually trace about 1 mm of neuron per hour.) Also, the images would occupy about 500 petabytes of data, and getting those data would require 20 electron microscopes running in parallel for about 5 years, continuously. They estimated the whole project would take about 17 years of work. This is, understandably, insane. But now it seems like there's an actual path toward mapping the full mouse brain in about five years for ~$100M dollars. There have been three major breakthroughs in the last year or so: 1/ Expansion microscopy, first developed in 2015, showed that it's possible to "enlarge" the brain by about 5x using a swellable polymer. But an improved method increases this number to >20x expansion, meaning we can now expand brains and image neurons much more easily using cheap light microscopes, rather than expensive electron ones. 2/ E11 Bio (a nonprofit research org) developed protein barcodes that get delivered into brain tissue; each neuron gets a unique combination of barcodes. These cells are then stained with colorful antibodies, which stick to a matching protein barcode, causing each neuron to light up in a distinct color. This makes tracing neurons so much easier. 3/ Google Research released PATHFINDER this May, an AI-based neuron tracing tool that can proofread about 67,200 cubic microns of brain tissue per hour, with very high accuracy. It works on electron micrographs, but something similar could be presumably be developed for the E11 / colorful tag approach. This is an extremely exciting time for neuroscience. (C. elegans connectome below.)

A stroke can destroy brain cells within minutes, often leaving people with long‑term problems in movement, memory, or speech. But scientists may have found a way to help the brain heal itself. In studies of mice, researchers injected stem cells into areas of the brain damaged by stroke. These stem cells began turning into early‑stage brain cells, and many later developed into active neurons that connected with surrounding tissue. The treatment did more than just grow cells.

Dhruv Rathee is an atheist too. Anyone who has two functional neurons who rub on each other can figure out how all religions are man made and a huge scam. How religions are divisive, spread hatred towards others and how they treat women. Yes religion gives people a false hope of God who is taking care of them. But that also makes people selfish and self centered. As when they see others suffering they think it’s God’s will. When they suffer turmoil they don’t try to work hard to get out of it. They accept it as God’s will. That’s why majority theocracies are under developed third world countries.

When the plant Mimosa pudica is touched or damaged by insects, it quickly closes its leaves as a defence. This happens because the plant sends fast electrical and calcium signals through its tissues, warning other parts of the plant that it is being eaten. These signals cause cells to lose water pressure, making the leaves fold inward within seconds. This rapid movement may help protect the plant by discouraging insects from continuing to feed, making it a simple but effective survival response. 📹 Masatsugu Toyota

That’s why they don’t release the baby turtles directly into the ocean. Instead, they let them crawl across the beach on their own. They want the little ones to smell the sand and feel every grain under their tiny flippers… so that years later, as adults, they can follow that memory back to this very same beach to lay their eggs. Nature’s journey is pure magic! 🐢💓

This is a Collapsible 3D Printed Vortex, a masterpiece of "Print-in-Place" engineering. How it works: The entire structure is printed as one single piece with incredibly tight tolerances—roughly 0.2mm to 0.3mm gaps between the rings. Because the layers don't actually touch, they can slide freely, creating that hypnotic "endless" spiral effect without any assembly required! It’s the perfect blend of mathematical precision and art.

How do you call these animals? Pill bugs, roly polies, potato bugs, woodlice? Did you know they are not insects? They are crustaceans and they have gills. More interestingly they remove heavy metals such as cadmium, arsenic and lead by ionising it, so preventing metal ions leaching in to groundwater. This means they are able to live on very polluted ground. But they an important help for cleaning up soil contaminated with pollutants which are dangerous to humans too. It’s thought there are about 3,500 species of woodlice in the world. They have 14 legs and an outer shell called an exoskeleton. When a woodlouse grows too big for its exoskeleton it has to moult to allow a new shell to take its place. Most woodlice are found on land, but their ancestors used to live in water and woodlice still breathe using gills. They eat rotting plants, fungi and their own faeces, but, interestingly enough, they don’t pee. They get rid of their waste by producing strong-smelling chemical called ammonia, which passes out through their shells as a gas. A common woodlouse can live for three-four years. [📹 Deep Look]

🚨 NASA is building spacecraft engines so weak… their thrust is comparable to the weight of a single sheet of paper. And yet they may completely change how humans explore the Solar System. Ion engines don’t explode with massive force like chemical rockets. They whisper. Instead of burning huge amounts of fuel in minutes… they apply tiny continuous acceleration for YEARS. That tiny push slowly builds enormous speed over time. The result: future spacecraft may travel farther using dramatically less fuel. NASA’s upcoming nuclear-electric propulsion systems could eventually allow: • reusable Mars cargo ships • cheaper deep-space missions • outer planet exploration • permanent cislunar infrastructure • industrial-scale movement through space The truly strange part: The future of deep-space travel may not belong to the loudest engines… but to the quietest ones. A constant whisper of thrust may outperform explosive power once distances become large enough. The deeper shift: Humanity is entering an era where space travel stops behaving like artillery… and starts behaving like infrastructure. Not giant bursts of force. Continuous intelligent acceleration. The Solar System may eventually become less like isolated planets… and more like connected territory. Follow for more future space and physics breakthroughs before they hit mainstream.

American aircraft carriers are being moved around the planet because of neuron sparks firing in Trump’s brain. One spark, and a carrier group steams toward Iran. Another spark, and it pivots toward the Gulf of Mexico. A third, and it is suddenly redirected again, as if global naval deployments are triggered by synapses misfiring rather than strategy sessions in the Pentagon. These ships are not chess pieces you flick across a board. They are floating cities with thousands of sailors, layered escort formations, complex logistics chains, and tightly planned maintenance cycles. Every abrupt redeployment compresses docking schedules, strains resupply operations, and pushes onboard systems beyond their intended rhythm. A blue water navy cannot operate on cognitive fireworks. It requires continuity, sequencing, and discipline. Warships are built for projection of power, not projection of impulse. Stay connected, Follow Gandalv Gandalv

🚨 Scientists just discovered that flies may see the world FASTER than some modern cameras. A new Nature Communications study found that houseflies use a hidden neural process called: “Synaptic high-frequency jumping” allowing their visual system to process motion at nearly ~1000 Hz. For comparison: Human vision ≈ ~60 Hz Gaming monitors ≈ 144–360 Hz This fly system reached nearly 1000 Hz. The craziest part? The fly eye is NOT acting like a passive camera. Its photoreceptors physically MOVE while sensing. Tiny microscopic “microsaccades” dynamically reshape the fly’s visual field in real time reducing blur and predicting motion before signals fully arrive. Researchers found • Neural responses synchronized in ~13–20 milliseconds • Information transfer hit ~4100 bits/sec • Signal timing precision approached ~0.5 ms • Motion blur was actively counteracted during rapid movement Even more insane: The fly’s downstream neurons sometimes peaked BEFORE the incoming visual signal fully peaked. Meaning the system appears to “phase-advance” motion itself. Not consciousness. Not thought. Pure physics-driven predictive computation happening inside the synapse. This could reshape: • AI vision systems • autonomous drones • neuromorphic computing • robotics • event-based cameras Nature may have solved ultra-fast machine vision millions of years ago. And we’re only just noticing. Follow me if you want the newest breakthroughs in physics, quantum tech, AI, and the hidden structures shaping reality.

🚨 Scientists just discovered that flies may see the world FASTER than some modern cameras. A new Nature Communications study found that houseflies use a hidden neural process called: “Synaptic high-frequency jumping” allowing their visual system to process motion at nearly ~1000 Hz. For comparison: Human vision ≈ ~60 Hz Gaming monitors ≈ 144–360 Hz This fly system reached nearly 1000 Hz. The craziest part? The fly eye is NOT acting like a passive camera.
