Researchers at McGill University have developed a light-sensitive nanoscale structure that mimics a neuron in information ...

The subthalamic nucleus contains subpopulations with different contributions to deliberative decision-making based on noisy evidence and reward-driven preferences.

A new study has shed light on how excess iron trapped inside neurons may contribute to brain cell damage and accelerate ...

Language-Specific Hardware: At the single-neuron level inside the hippocampus, individual cells are largely language-specific ...

While E. Josie Clowney would never suggest that neuroscience is simple, a new study by her team at the University of Michigan could drastically reduce complexity in future studies. Their work focused ...

A team at Carnegie Mellon University is helping kids understand artificial intelligence with a soft, squishy, LED-lit neural network. "Everyone, even middle schoolers, needs to know a little about ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These devices emulate how neurons use chemicals to transmit and process signals, ...

Researchers at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering and the School of Advanced Computing have built artificial neurons that physically replicate the electrochemical behavior of real brain cells. The ...

Summary: Researchers have created over 400 distinct types of human nerve cells in vitro, vastly expanding the diversity available for neuroscience research. By systematically combining genetic ...
