Engineers have printed tiny, artificial neurons that can "talk" to mouse brain cells, and the development could pave the way to innovations in computing and medicine. The work, published April 15 in ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These devices emulate how neurons use chemicals to transmit and process signals, ...

Engineers at Northwestern University have taken a striking leap toward merging machines with the human brain by printing artificial neurons that can actually communicate with real ones. These flexible ...

Most people wouldn’t give Geobacter sulfurreducens a second look. The bacteria was first discovered in a ditch in rural Oklahoma. But the lowly microbe has a superpower. It grows protein nanotubes ...

Your brain can still make new neurons when you’re an adult. But how does the rare birth of these new neurons contribute to cognitive function? Researchers know that new neurons contribute to memory ...

The new model developed by Flatiron Institute researchers proposes that biological neurons have more control over their surroundings than previously thought, something that could be replicated in the ...

A new imaging technique developed at the University of Illinois now gives researchers a way to watch the flow of mass -- the molecular flux of life itself -- as living nerve nets begin to crystallize.

Researchers developed a novel bio-AI system where living rat cortical neurons were trained to perform real-time computational tasks. The study focuses on combining biological neural networks with ...

Modern artificial intelligence systems, from robotic surgery to high-frequency trading, rely on processing streams of raw data in real time. Extracting important features quickly is critical, but ...
