Lab-grown “reductionist replicas” of the human brain are helping scientists understand fetal development and cognitive ...

Our brains do not react in a fixed, mechanical way like electronic circuits. Even if we see the same scene every day on our ...

Imagine listening to a recording of an orchestral performance, but because of a bad studio technician, the only instrument ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These ...

A new Yale study has revealed that neurons — the energy-hungry cells that connect and direct activity in the brain — are equipped with “backup batteries” that kick in to keep the brain running during ...

We've all experienced defeat at some point – losing a game, a potential new job, a debate. Now, a new study has found that the brain may learn from losing to others, with a specific group of neurons ...

Through pioneering neuromorphic computing research, Yiran Chen is developing brain-inspired hardware neurons that could lead ...

The human brain shrinks as it ages, affecting the ability to remember — it’s part of life. Yet there are a lucky few, called “SuperAgers,” who possess a brain that fights back. For these people, ...

Fiber-optic technology revolutionized the telecommunications industry and may soon do the same for brain research.

It’s estimated it can take an AI model over 6,000 joules of energy to generate a single text response. By comparison, your brain needs just 20 joules every second to keep you alive and cognitive. That ...
