A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual ...

Even consciousness could reveal its secrets someday with this realistic simulation, researchers hope. It will not only ...

A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...

Pea-size clusters of human cells called brain organoids inspire both hope and fear. Experts are debating how scientists can ...

A new open-source model of brain metabolism, developed by scientists at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), has shown how altering key chemicals could restore aged cells to their youthful ...

In the patterned brain organoids, by contrast, FGF8 is the only signal that specifies the different domains. Analyzing the brain organoids, the scientists conclude that the FGF8 source in the ...

Addiction is one of the most intensely studied conditions in modern medicine, yet even with high‑resolution brain scans and ...

The most comprehensive model of the brain’s metabolism, incorporating more than 16,800 biochemical interactions, has identified key targets to reverse the age-related decline in brain function. The ...

After traumatic brain injury (TBI), some patients may recover completely, while others retain severe disabilities. Accurately ...
