Over the past decades, computer scientists have introduced numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems designed to emulate the organization and functioning of networks of neurons in the brain.

Neural organoids have been heralded as having huge potential for advancing our knowledge of the brain in several fields.

UC Santa Barbara researchers confirmed that parts of the neural network that inhibit movement in fruit flies plays a ...

New types of computing architecture, which emulate the working principles of biological neural networks, hold the promise of faster, more energy-efficient data processing. A team of researchers has ...

The brains of humans and other primates are known to execute various sophisticated functions, one of which is the representation of the space immediately surrounding the body. This area, also ...

A University of Toronto study reveals that neural crest stem cells, found in the skin and other areas, are responsible for the generation of reprogrammed neurons, contradicting the prevailing theory ...

Millions of neurons branch throughout our bodies, keeping them in close communication with our brains. This peripheral ...

Scientists have identified previously unknown neural modules in the brain that control movement and adapt during skill learning. Their findings challenge long-held ideas about how the brain organizes ...

In the past, when researchers modeled quadruped gaits — how four-legged organisms walk, run and move — gaits have been ...

The chip contains almost 8,400 functioning artificial neurons from waveguide-coupled phase-change material. The researchers trained this neural network to distinguish between German and English texts ...
