Scientists at Monash University have created a tiny fluid-based chip that behaves like neural pathways of the brain, ...
A new study has uncovered how the brain seamlessly transforms sounds, speech patterns, and words into the flow of everyday conversations. Using advanced technology to analyze over 100 hours of brain ...
Are the same technologies that promise to make us smarter making us less capable of the mental work that builds understanding ...
In the split second that is needed to view a stop sign and react to it, our brain navigates a complex process that transitions seamlessly from perception to action control. This ability to halt or ...
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 ...
Have you ever gotten a flash of a different route you could have taken while stuck in traffic? This isn't just a fleeting ...
In a quiet Cornell University lab, researchers have taken a hammer to decades of digital circuit convention. The result is a silicon chip that thinks less like a clock-driven processor and more like a ...
Jaideep Mavoori, a University of Washington researcher, spends a lot of time thinking about communicationsnot telephone or radio, but the sophisticated network that is the human body's nervous system.
Our brains have an extraordinary ability to adapt and learn, a process known as neuroplasticity. From navigating a new city to mastering a new skill, neuroplasticity allows us to reshape our neural ...
Research has found that reading consistently can improve memory, reduce stress, and may even be linked to a longer lifespan.
