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 ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology not only learned a simple visual category learning task exactly as well as lab animals, but even enabled the ...

We can replace joints, lenses, even organs—but not the brain. As neuroscience unravels the mechanisms of neurodegeneration, ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

Scientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say results of a new study are advancing efforts to exploit a new target for Alzheimer's ...

Experiments conducted in genetically engineered mice reinforce that CSE protein (ordinarily known for producing hydrogen ...

For more than a century, brain imaging has been a story of trade-offs: sharp pictures but slow timing, or fast signals with ...

Scientists have uncovered the brain’s hidden language by developing a protein that detects faint glutamate signals. The ...

This study presents SynaptoGen, a differentiable extension of connectome models that links gene expression, protein-protein interaction probabilities, synaptic multiplicity, and synaptic weights, and ...

MIT researchers are using living cells to target diseased brain areas and deliver tiny electronic devices that can modulate ...

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

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 ...
