Artificial intelligence can share our natural ability to make numeric snap judgments. Researchers observed this knack for numbers in a computer model composed of virtual brain cells, or neurons, ...

Researchers from University of California San Diego School of Medicine have used single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to identify a pattern of gene expression that can be used to predict whether or ...

Since then, many more researchers have reported evidence for neurons changing how they respond to certain stimuli or ...

How complex neural circuits are genetically designed and wired is a fundamental question in neuroscience. Scientists have ...

A 3D network of living neurons and electronics can recognize electrical patterns and may help researchers study both brain ...

A new technology called LinCx allows scientists to create custom electrical connections between neurons with high precision.

The ability to sense regular patterns is fundamental to making sense of the world. Stimulus from the environment activates a group of neurons in the frontoparietal region of the brain called the ...

The eye works by focusing light on the back of the eye, which contains light-sensitive cells called photoreceptors. This activates electric signals, which are transmitted through the layers of neurons ...
