Can living neurons replace AI? A new study shows that biological neural networks (BNNs) can be trained to perform reservoir ...

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

The brain’s rules seem simple: Fire together, wire together. When groups of neurons activate, they become interconnected. This networking is how we learn, reason, form memories, and adapt to our world ...

A rare group of neurons can reconnect broken spinal circuits and trigger leg muscle activity after spinal cord injury—a discovery that could help refine future stem-cell therapies for paralysis. The ...

This emerging category, often described as wetware computing, treats biology as an active component of digital architectures ...

The healing of the spinal cord depends on carefully timed interactions between injured nerve cells and their surrounding environment, according to a study published in Science Advances by researchers ...

Overactivation of dopamine neurons may directly drive their death, explaining why movement-controlling brain cells degenerate in Parkinson’s. Mice with chronically stimulated neurons showed the same ...

A University of Alberta research team will spend the next five years studying the role of poorly understood spinal neurons in ...
