NeuriteNet: A convolutional neural network for assessing morphological parameters of neurite growth.

Journal of neuroscience methods
BACKGROUND: During development or regeneration, neurons extend processes (i.e., neurites) via mechanisms that can be readily analyzed in culture. However, defining the impact of a drug or genetic manipulation on such mechanisms can be challenging due...

Deep learning-based predictive identification of neural stem cell differentiation.

Nature communications
The differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) into neurons is proposed to be critical in devising potential cell-based therapeutic strategies for central nervous system (CNS) diseases, however, the determination and prediction of differentiation is...

Modeling of Brain-Like Concept Coding with Adulthood Neurogenesis in the Dentate Gyrus.

Computational intelligence and neuroscience
Mammalian brains respond to new concepts via a type of neural coding termed "concept coding." During concept coding, the dentate gyrus (DG) plays a vital role in pattern separation and pattern integration of concepts because it is a brain region with...

Robotic platform for microinjection into single cells in brain tissue.

EMBO reports
Microinjection into single cells in brain tissue is a powerful technique to study and manipulate neural stem cells. However, such microinjection requires expertise and is a low-throughput process. We developed the "Autoinjector", a robot that utilize...

DeTerm: Software for automatic detection of neuronal dendritic branch terminals via an artificial neural network.

Genes to cells : devoted to molecular & cellular mechanisms
Dendrites of neurons receive and process synaptic or sensory inputs. The Drosophila class IV dendritic arborization (da) neuron is an established model system to explore molecular mechanisms of dendrite morphogenesis. The total number of dendritic br...

Emergence of spontaneous assembly activity in developing neural networks without afferent input.

PLoS computational biology
Spontaneous activity is a fundamental characteristic of the developing nervous system. Intriguingly, it often takes the form of multiple structured assemblies of neurons. Such assemblies can form even in the absence of afferent input, for instance in...

Design and validation of an ontology-driven animal-free testing strategy for developmental neurotoxicity testing.

Toxicology and applied pharmacology
Developmental neurotoxicity entails one of the most complex areas in toxicology. Animal studies provide only limited information as to human relevance. A multitude of alternative models have been developed over the years, providing insights into mech...

Neural electrical activity and neural network growth.

Neural networks : the official journal of the International Neural Network Society
The development of central and peripheral neural system depends in part on the emergence of the correct functional connectivity in its input and output pathways. Now it is generally accepted that molecular factors guide neurons to establish a primary...

A machine learning approach for the identification of key markers involved in brain development from single-cell transcriptomic data.

BMC genomics
BACKGROUND: The ability to sequence the transcriptomes of single cells using single-cell RNA-seq sequencing technologies presents a shift in the scientific paradigm where scientists, now, are able to concurrently investigate the complex biology of a ...
