In work that unmasks some of the magic behind memristors and «resistive random access memory,» or RRAM — cutting - edge computer components that combine logic and memory functions — researchers have shown that the metal particles in memristors don't stay put as previously thought.

To gain an understanding of how electrical synapses specifically form between neurons, we are interested in determining which gap junctions identified in the reconstruction of the nervous system have UNC - 7 as a component, which other innexins contribute to these junctions, what determines specificity for forming complete channels, and how these gap junctions function to direct information flow in the nervous system.

Further, we identify cis - acting genetic variation as the greatest component influencing OSN composition and demonstrate independence from OR function.
