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 ...

Real-life researchers taught a dish of roughly 200,000 living human brain cells to play the classic 1990s computer game “Doom ...

The origins of Alzheimer's remain contentious, but a new study suggests the disease may emerge as two key proteins compete ...

Sure, playing video game is fun. But the ability of tiny brain organoids to pick up a skill could provide insight into how ...

It’s a bizarre sight: With a short burst of light, a sponge-shaped robot scoots across a tiled surface. Flipped on its back, it repeatedly twitches as if doing sit-ups. By tinkering with the light’s ...

How does brain metabolism affect aging? Researchers received a $3.3M NIH grant to study neurometabolic coupling and Alzheimer ...
