Scientists developed two new sensors that can detect brain cell communication in real time, tracking chemical messages ...

Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain's neuronal connections, and as a result, in signal ...

Researchers have engineered a next-generation glutamate sensor, iGluSnFR4, capable of detecting the faintest incoming ...

It has been unclear how to build simulations of entire neural circuits with only measurements from a dead fly’s brain. Using machine learning to combine a wiring diagram with knowledge of the ...

In a groundbreaking achievement, Princeton University scientists have fully mapped the brain of an adult fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, unlocking new insights into how brains work. The feat marks ...

The ability to measure the connectivity of each neuron in a neural circuit has established large maps of neuronal pathways—the connectome. But the extent to which those connectivity measurements alone ...

Research reveals why AI systems can't become conscious—and what radically different computing substrates would be needed to ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The human brain processes complex information while consuming merely the power of a dim light bulb. This remarkable efficiency stems from synapses, the connections between brain ...

Memory resistors, or memristors for short, are a unique form of circuitry that resemble the neural pathways of the human brain and improve as additional current that passes through them, much like the ...
