Lab-grown brain tissue learned to balance a virtual pole with 46% accuracy, revealing how living neural networks adapt and ...

Precise electrical stimulation is essential for modern neural interfaces, but unwanted current spread often activates off-target cells and limits resolution. A new microneedle electrode design ...

A team led by Northwestern University and Shirley Ryan AbilityLab scientists have developed a new technology that can eavesdrop on the hidden electrical dialogues unfolding inside miniature, lab-grown ...

Neural crest cells are a population of stem cells that invade the embryo in early development. They play a big role in what ...

In a small lab at the University of California, Santa Cruz, clusters of mouse brain cells have taken on a task normally reserved for computer algorithms: ...

Rice University neuroscientist Chong Xie leads a team that has won a $2.9 million grant from the NIH to develop a state-of-the-art implantable neural electrode system. HOUSTON – (July 17, 2024) – Rice ...

Researchers used 3D printing and capillary action to create customizable neural chips, expanding design freedom for brain research, biosensors and biocomputing. (Nanowerk News) Cultured neural tissues ...

When a vertebrate embryo develops, a group of cells self-organizes into the neural tube, eventually becoming the brain and the spinal cord. This involves specific signals, but how these signals are ...

The comparison underscores a paradox at the heart of modern AI development: today’s neural networks are inspired by the brain, yet researchers still cannot fully decode the wiring of even a ...
