Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

A new MRI technique called Velocity Spectrum Imaging can map fluid movement in the human brain within a 3D pixel, according ...

For decades, scientists have searched for a safe way to reach deep parts of the human brain without cutting into the skull.

Researchers are no longer just simulating brains in silicon, they are wiring living human neurons into machines and asking them to compute. Tiny clusters of brain cells, grown from stem cells and ...

Trent Loos explores energy use, economic impact and research comparing the human brain to modern supercomputers.

Shutting down the enzyme PTP1B helps brain immune cells clear plaques again, pointing to a potential new Alzheimer’s ...

That sharp flinch during a violent movie scene is familiar to many people. A hand slams, a body falls, and your own muscles ...

Brain microphysiological systems are reshaping in vitro neurotoxicity testing through functional validation and advanced ...

CorTec today announced the second successful implantation of its Brain Interchange brain-computer interface (BCI) system. The procedure took place in an FDA-approved clinical trial involving stroke ...

Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...

The breakthrough builds on neuromorphic engineering, a field that designs hardware modeled after the human brain. Unlike traditional processors, which separate memory and computation, neuromorphic ...
