Neurons are famously fragile, yet some injured cells manage to hang on, stabilize, and even reconnect. That quiet resilience ...
Neuroscientists have long dreamed of watching thoughts unfold as they happen, without disturbing the fragile tissue that ...
Shifting focus on a visual scene without moving our eyes — think driving, or reading a room for the reaction to your joke — is a behavior known as covert ...
A new computer simulation of how our brains develop and grow neurons has been built. Along with improving our understanding of how the brain works, researchers hope that the models will contribute to ...
It was once believed that mice had relatively poor vision. Turns out mice are far from blind – and studying how their vision is shaped by their environment and behavior can clarify the same in people.
Being able to understand speech is essential to our evolution as humans. Hearing lets us perceive the same word even when spoken at different speeds or pitches, and also gives us extra sensitivity to ...
Gliomas are cancers that originate directly in the brain, instead of spreading to the brain from other parts of the body.
Editor’s Note: This is part of a series called Inside the Lab, which gives audiences a first-hand look at the research laboratories at the University of Chicago and the scholars who are tackling some ...
Carnegie Mellon research professor Dave Touretzky says teaching students about generative artificial intelligence is like teaching them about electricity: It should involve a general explanation of ...
If you are interested in learning the basics of how Artificial Intelligence (AI) functions this quick guide will take you through an overview of the technologies and methods used by the latest large ...
Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine, Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute (Duncan NRI) at Texas Children’s Hospital, Stanford University School of Medicine and collaborating ...
A new bioluminescent tool allows neurons to glow on their own, letting scientists track brain activity without harmful lasers ...
