The advance from a team with Professor Tobin Marks and research assistant professor Yao Yao could enable perceptual ...

Advancements could enhance perceptual capabilities in robotics. Artificially engineered biological processes, such as ...

The interlinking of neurons during childhood results in many more synapses than remain in the adult brain. The reduction in synapses that happens as a person grows up is thought to be adaptive ...

Taking inspiration from nature, a group of scientists have amalgamated hybrid materials to form a robust biomimetic system that closely mimics the behavior of biological synapses. This can pave the pa ...

Cut off any part of this worm's body and it will regrow. This is the spectacular yet mysterious regenerative ability of ...

Could understanding its brain pave the way for insights into human diseases? With 140,000 neurons mapped, the scientific community is now equipped with a complete brain map, the fruit of a decade ...

Artificially engineered biological processes, such as perception systems, remain an elusive target for organic electronics ...

The entorhinal cortex (EC) plays a pivotal role in memory function and spatial navigation, connecting the hippocampus with the neocortex. The EC integrates a wide range of cortical and subcortical ...

which encompass sensations that are captured through a body-wide receiver network that goes far beyond the brain itself Interestingly, biocomputing organoids—tiny clusters of human neurons deriv ...

derived either from mouse brain tissue or from human stem cells, on the nanopillars. In traditional flat petri dishes and 2D biomaterials, neurons grew in random directions. But on the 3D-printed ...
