As a key structural parameter, phase depicts the arrangement of atoms in materials.
Normally, a nanomaterial exists in its thermodynamically stable crystal phase. With the …

Flexible neuromorphic electronics that emulate biological neuronal systems constitute a
promising candidate for next‐generation wearable computing, soft robotics, and …

Coupled ionic–electronic effects present intriguing opportunities for device and circuit
development. In particular, layered two-dimensional materials such as MoS2 offer highly …

Interfaces between organelles are emerging as critical platforms for many biological
responses in eukaryotic cells. In yeast, the ERMES complex is an endoplasmic reticulum …

Background/objectives Over the last ten years, an increasing number of authors have used
the theta burst stimulation (TBS) protocol to investigate long-term potentiation (LTP) and …

Dendritic calcium signaling is central to neural plasticity mechanisms that allow animals to
adapt to the environment. Intracellular calcium release (ICR) from the endoplasmic reticulum …

In spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP), the order and precise temporal interval
between presynaptic and postsynaptic spikes determine the sign and magnitude of long …

Central sensitization represents an enhancement in the function of neurons and circuits in
nociceptive pathways caused by increases in membrane excitability and synaptic efficacy as …

Synapses are highly plastic and are modified by changes in patterns of neural activity or
sensory experience. Plasticity of cortical excitatory synapses is thought to be important for …

It has been 30 years since the discovery that repeated electrical stimulation of neural
pathways can lead to long-term potentiation in hippocampal slices. With its relevance to …
