A new study by physicists and neuroscientists describes how connectivity among neurons comes about through general principles of networking and self-organization, rather than the biological features ...

That first pulse of life, the careful, patterned movement of cells that creates a new organism, has always been something of a secret miracle. Now, MIT engineers have introduced a deep-learning model ...

During early development, tissues and organs begin to bloom through the shifting, splitting, and growing of many thousands of cells. A team of MIT engineers has now developed a way to predict, minute ...
