Scientists have successfully connected living human brain cells to a computer system and taught them to interact with the classic video game DOOM. The strange experiment marks a new step toward ...

A next-generation silicon brain probe called Neuropixels Ultra more than doubles the number of individual neurons scientists can detect in a single recording session, according to a study published in ...

In a sweeping new map of the adult Drosophila melanogaster brain, researchers at the University of Oxford found that mature neurons still carry a molecular record of where they came from and when they ...

International researchers develop NTAC, an AI that identifies neuronal types with 90% accuracy based purely on synaptic connectivity, outperforming traditional shape-based methods.

Researchers use AI "digital twins" to discover a new type of neuron in the visual cortex that perceives complex textures and object arrangements.

The human brain is constantly picking up patterns in everyday experiences — and can do so without conscious thought, finds a study of neuronal activity in people who had electrodes implanted in their ...

The visual cortex is the part of the brain that enables visual perception. In this area millions of nerve cells, called neurons, process stimuli from the outside world. They only react when objects ...

Scientists have recreated the growth of Lewy bodies in human neurons and followed their formation to gain important insight into why and how they form. Critically, they find that immune challenge is ...

Neurons activated by psychological strain recruited immune cells that drove skin inflammation in mice, revealing a pathway linking stress and skin disease.
