Artificial neurons could open a pathway toward computing that resembles human brain power.

To map the mammalian brain and its various functions with increasing precision, neuroscientists rely on high-resolution imaging techniques and other advanced experimental tools. These include ...

A tiny strip of printed nanomaterials fired an electrical spike, and a living mouse brain cell answered back. That exchange, ...

Engineers at Northwestern University have taken a striking leap toward merging machines with the human brain by printing ...

The same brain cells activate when you see something and when you imagine it, helping explain why mental images can feel so ...

Researchers uncovered how shifting levels of a brain protein called KCC2 can reshape the way cues become linked with rewards, sometimes making habits form more quickly or more powerfully than expected ...

At the core of neuronal communication lie action potentials, brief, rapid electrical impulses that travel down the axon to transmit information for brain function. Abnormalities in neuron firing are ...

WASHINGTON – A new finding from researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center shows that the learning process of associating cues with rewards can be altered by increased or decreased activity ...
