To test the limits, the researchers started by firing a powerful, ultrafast laser into the side of a volunteer’s head. The ...

A new model suggests that astrocytes might be used in computation, coordinating with neurons and connecting synapses in ...

This is because modern robotic vision, including visual place recognition, typically relies on power-hungry machine learning ...

New research shows that the human brain automatically recognizes what actions an environment affords—like walking, climbing, or swimming—even without conscious thought.

Now, Cortical Labs has successfully developed a brain-on-a-chip computer primarily designed to aid scientists and researchers studying diseases, therapies, and treatments. The new computer—called CL-1 ...

UC Riverside study on how Toxoplasma gondii manipulates brain cells lays groundwork for future clinical research and ...

Research has detected microplastics in a range of vital body parts, including the heart and brain. Now, researchers break down how these nanoparticles enter the human brain and the potential ...

For the first time, we have a method for extracting proteins from preserved soft tissues like brains – which could be a ...

The human brain contains about 86 billion neurons. These cells fire electrical signals that help the brain store memories and send information and commands throughout the brain and the nervous system.

What if a single choice could hijack your brain’s wiring, rewriting your behavior, judgment, and even your ability to survive? The human brain is an essential organ in the body, responsible for ...

Paradromics, which initially tested its chip in sheep, used its first in-human procedure to better understand how epilepsy influences brain signaling.
