Investigators at Cedars-Sinai have created computer-generated models to bridge the gap between "test tube" data about neurons and the function of those cells in the living brain. Their study, ...

The prefrontal cortex region of the human brain is responsible for a range of complex functions from decision-making to certain types of memory. When something goes wrong in this part of the brain, it ...

Scientists have known for years that a lattice of blood vessels nourishes cells in the retina that allow us to see -- but it's been a mystery how the intricate structure is created. Now, researchers ...

Scientists have built an artificial neuron that’s so realistic it fires, learns, and responds to chemical signals just like ...

A technical paper titled “3D Neuromorphic Hardware with Single Thin-Film Transistor Synapses Over Single Thin-Body Transistor Neurons by Monolithic Vertical Integration” was published by researchers ...

Comparing a map of the neurons in a nematode worm - the connectome - with a map of how signals travel across those neurons ...
