When we learn a new skill, the brain has to decide—cell by cell—what to change. New research from MIT suggests it can do that ...
When patients undergo general anesthesia, doctors can choose among several drugs. Although each of these drugs acts on ...
A growing body of neuroscience research is challenging a basic assumption about how the brain produces awareness. Where conventional theories treat consciousness as a product of neuronal firing alone, ...
Scientists placed 200,000 living human brain cells on a microchip and taught it how to play a doomsday video game — and are ...
A newly identified role for the neuronal MPS shows it controls nutrient uptake by acting as a gatekeeper. Its disruption ...
By tagging neurons with molecular "barcodes," researchers have mapped connections among thousands of neurons in the mouse ...
A new study suggests AI systems could be a lot more efficient. Researchers were able to shrink an AI vision model to 1/1000th ...
Scientists created an artificial neuron that operates at the same voltage as living cells and is able to communicate with the ...
New research from the University of Wyoming reveals that the brain cells that control hunger may be far more adaptable during ...
Neurons placed inside engineered living bodies built from frog cells self-organize, become active, and reshape movement without evolutionary guidance.
Scientists used a compact AI model to predict how visual cortex neurons respond to images, revealing hidden patterns in ...
A brain mechanism may explain why approximately 40% of people with hypertension continue to have high blood pressure despite taking medication. The discovery reveals potential targets for new ...
