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 ...

Neuroscientists have unveiled an engineered protein that lets them watch incoming signals wash over neurons in real time, turning what used to be invisible chemical whispers into vivid, trackable ...

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

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

For decades, Alzheimer’s research has largely focused on slowing decline, not restoring what was lost. Now a series of animal ...

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 ...

Singapore has one of the highest life expectancies in the world, yet many individuals spend almost a decade in poor health ...

There is a strong link between regular physical exercise and good brain health, according to one study. Researchers found ...

Singapore has one of the highest life expectancies in the world, yet many individuals spend almost a decade in poor health toward the end of life. Scientists from the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, ...
