A new MIT study finds that somatostatin-expressing neurons follow a unique trajectory when forming connections in the brain’s ...
You probably have a general understanding of the human brain: a network of nerve cells connected by synapses. Complex or abstract ideas emerge as a result of the firing of many of these nerve cells, ...
A major neuroscience breakthrough has been achieved with the help of an artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning algorithm. In a study published this month in Cell, a multinational team of ...
They created a library of the different electrical signatures for each type of neuron, which then allowed them to train an AI algorithm that can automatically recognise five different types of neurons ...
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 ...
Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...
The human sense of touch is a complex system that integrates diverse sensations such as pain, temperature, and pleasant ...
