The brain is more mechanically connected to the body than previously appreciated, scientists reported today (April 27) in Nature Neuroscience. Through a study using mice and simulations, the team ...

For many years, a dominant view in neuroscience was that neurons in the inferotemporal (IT) cortex—a critical center in the ...

A startup is experimenting with data centers powered by lab-grown human neurons, testing whether living cells can offer a ...

Scientists link a rising brain protein to memory decline and show it can be reversed in mice, offering a new target for ...

Somewhere in your skull right now, there is no math department. No region of the brain exists solely to process equations, ...

Researchers from Skoltech and the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics have developed an approach that helps ...

Some scientists are wondering if we could mimic the energy-efficient processes of the human brain to improve AI systems. A ...

It is almost certainly not a coincidence that a networking expert at Google has risen to the top to be put in charge of the ...

We can get silicon to "think" but the neuron can't be beat for efficiency. So, researchers worked to imitate it.

Training AI world models on data about physical environments could improve their real-world capabilities in technologies such ...

This valuable study addressed a key question in epilepsy research: whether the recordings of very fast oscillations in the brain (>250Hz, fast ripples) reflect underlying pathology or might be a ...

A detailed map of smell receptors in the nose overturns textbook models of olfactory receptor organization in mice.
