The world’s most powerful supercomputers can now run simulations of billions of neurons, and researchers hope such models ...
A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual category learning task exactly as well as lab animals, but even enabled the ...
Alzheimer’s disease has long looked like a slow-motion wildfire, starting in one part of the brain and then advancing along ...
A new MIT study finds that somatostatin-expressing neurons follow a unique trajectory when forming connections in the brain’s ...
Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...
