Recent technological advances facilitate the reconstruction of complete brain connectomes in small organisms and partial ...

Neural organoids have been heralded as having huge potential for advancing our knowledge of the brain in several fields.

The brain is the most complex organ in the human body. Different parts of the brain perform a variety of functions, all of ...

Researchers developed a chip-based quantum-dot laser that emulates a biological graded neuron while achieving a signal processing speed of 10 GBaud. WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a ...

Researchers have mapped how "histone bivalency" acts as a molecular clock for brain development. By holding genes in a poised state, this mechanism ensures neurons mature only after completing ...

Shifting focus on a visual scene without moving our eyes - think driving, or reading a room for the reaction to your joke - is a behavior known as covert attention. We do it all the time, but little ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers have developed a laser-based artificial neuron that fully emulates the functions, dynamics and information processing of a biological graded neuron. With a signal ...

Neuronal Type Assignment from Connectivity (NTAC) transforms a connectome into a graph, and detects neuron types using "connectivity fingerprints” and groups the neuronal cell types in the connectome.
