Scientists have successfully connected living human brain cells to a computer system and taught them to interact with the classic video game DOOM. The strange experiment marks a new step toward ...

In a sweeping new map of the adult Drosophila melanogaster brain, researchers at the University of Oxford found that mature ...

Researchers create the first high-resolution molecular atlas of the fruit fly brain, revealing how lineage and birth order define neuronal identity.

The visual cortex is the part of the brain that enables visual perception. In this area millions of nerve cells, called neurons, process stimuli from the outside world. They only react when objects ...

Researchers use AI "digital twins" to discover a new type of neuron in the visual cortex that perceives complex textures and object arrangements.

Scientists grew 8,00,000 human neurons in a laboratory, connected them to a Pong game, and watched them learn the video game in five minutes with no body, no senses, and no past. The DishBrain ...

Scientists used a compact AI model to predict how visual cortex neurons respond to images, revealing hidden patterns in perception.

Some older adults with exceptional memory grow far more new neurons in the hippocampus, while Alzheimer’s brains show almost ...
