Researchers from the University of New Hampshire looked at the developmental process of the cerebral cortex —the outermost layer of the brain — and examined how neurons, or nerve cells, refine their ...

If you've ever noticed how memories from the same day seem connected while events from weeks apart feel separate, a new study reveals the reason: Our brains physically link memories that occur close ...

The ACC is a key brain region involved in various functions ... However, a comprehensive understanding of how a limited number of neurons within the ACC execute such diverse functions has been ...

Researchers have revealed neural circuits in the brainstem that are crucially involved in implementing decisions by controlling three fundamental behavioral states or strategies: perseverance, ...

New brain-inspired hardware, architectures and algorithms could lead to more efficient, more capable forms of AI.

In a study supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), researchers revealed the structural underpinnings of memory formation across a broad network of neurons in the mouse brain.

MIT researchers devised a process to convert a skin cell directly into a neuron, eliminating the need to generate induced pluripotent stem cells. Such neurons could be used to treat spinal cord ...

International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) researchers have developed a neuromorphic photonic semiconductor neuron ...
