A compact aVLSI conductance-based silicon neuron
We present an analogue Very Large Scale Integration (aVLSI) implementation that uses first-order lowpass filters to implement a conductance-based silicon neuron for high-speed neuromorphic systems.

Optical neuron using polarisation switching in a 1550nm-VCSEL [PDF]
We report a new approach to mimic basic functionalities of a neuron using a 1550 nm Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) which is based on the polarisation switching (PS) that can be induced in these devices when subject to polarised optical ...

Characterization of the anticipated synchronization regime in the coupled FitzHugh--Nagumo model for neurons [PDF]
We characterize numerically the regime of anticipated synchronization in the coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo model for neurons. We consider two neurons, coupled unidirectionally (in a master-slave configuration), subject to the same random external forcing and ...

Spinocerebellar ataxia 3 (SCA3, also known as Machado–Joseph disease) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by inheritance of a CAG repeat expansion within the ATXN3 gene, resulting in polyglutamine (polyQ) repeat expansion within the ataxin-3 protein ...

I, NEURON: the neuron as the collective [PDF]
Purpose – In the last half-century, individual sensory neurons have been bestowed with characteristics of the whole human being, such as behavior and its oft-presumed precursor, consciousness. This anthropomorphization is pervasive in the literature.
