Scientists are exploring neuroscience, particularly mirror neurons, to inspire advanced AI. These brain cells, which fire ...

Cocaine addiction isn’t simply a failure of willpower — it’s the result of lasting biological changes in the brain.

Superagers’ memory capacity rivals that of younger adults. A new study suggests their brains’ robust production of new neurons may be why.

A pair of new studies have provided fresh evidence in the long-running scientific debate—and the result could be ...

A new study has found that SuperAgers also grow more neurons than other older adults groups, helping to keep their brains healthy. As we age, it’s not uncommon for the brain to change in ways that can ...

A new study has uncovered why some brain cells are more resistant to Alzheimer’s damage than others. Researchers found a natural cleanup system that helps remove toxic tau protein before it can form ...

A new study suggests AI systems could be a lot more efficient. Researchers were able to shrink an AI vision model to 1/1000th ...

A new bioengineered neuronal circuit board "BioConNet" allows scientists to artificially engineer human brain-like wiring at scale and can be used to engineer any possible circuit. The fully ...

The cerebral cortex, the brain's outermost region responsible for higher cognitive functions, depends on a highly ordered, layered structure. Its proper development requires newly generated neurons to ...

The cerebral cortex, the brain’s outermost region responsible for higher cognitive functions, depends on a highly ordered, ...

Many people’s brains deteriorate as they age, becoming riddled with malfunctioning proteins that result in cell death and the ...

Unlearning fear responses is a fundamental learning process in the brain. It allows us to flexibly react to formerly ...
