The world’s most powerful supercomputers can now run simulations of billions of neurons, and researchers hope such models ...
The sound of a fire alarm tells us to get out quickly to not get hurt, while the sight of a gas station sign can signal a ...
A newly identified enzyme appears to control tau production, brain inflammation, and aging. Researchers at the University of ...
For decades, scientists believed the human brain stopped producing new neurons after childhood. This long-held view painted the adult brain as a fixed organ, incapable of generating fresh cells in the ...
As prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers eye limits to the current phase of the technology, a different approach ...
Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...
New research reveals how a class of neurons that help coordinate communication in the brain link up with their target cells, ...
University of New Mexico researchers found that the immune enzyme OTULIN drives tau production, brain inflammation and aging.
Our brain is an energy-efficient marvel, with 86 billion neurons and trillions of connections running on just 20 watts—the energy of a single lightbulb. Swiss innovators at Final Spark are ...
It's been estimated that the human brain contains roughly 100 billion neurons, together completing countless tasks through countless connections. So how do we make sense of the roles each of these ...
