Researchers have crossed a threshold that once belonged squarely to science fiction: they have built working models of brains ...

Scientists are building experimental computers from living human brain cells and testing how they learn and adapt.

“This is a paradigm shift,” says Donn Van Deren, PhD, postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, who ...

MIT researchers are using living cells to target diseased brain areas and deliver tiny electronic devices that can modulate ...

In a lab rack that looks more like a high-end audio system than a server, clusters of human brain cells are quietly learning ...

Organoid Intelligence (OI) represents a groundbreaking convergence of biology and technology, aiming to redefine biocomputing using brain organoids—three-dimensional neural structures derived from ...

Researchers have unveiled a breakthrough technology that could transform the way scientists build and study lab-grown brain ...

Scientists long have warned we’ll eventually reach the physical limits of what silicon chips can do. Beyond the energy required to power an ascendant artificial intelligence industry and endless ...

Anxiety disorders are some of the most common mental health conditions in America, affecting about one in five people nationwide. But much remains unknown about the roots of anxiety in the brain. Now, ...

The tiny chips hitch a ride on immune cells to target inflammation in the brain. Scientists hope to kick off clinical trials within three years. From restoring movement and speech in people with ...

Detailed mapping of 1.2 million brain cells has revealed that not all cell types age in the same way and that some – found in a specific ‘hot spot’ – are more sensitive to the aging process. It opens ...

The brain plays a big part in the aging process, and scientists think they’ve pinpointed the specific cells that control it. In a study of mice, researchers at the Allen Institute identified certain ...
