Researchers at the National University of Singapore are contributing to a data centre that runs on - not computer chips but ...

As prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers eye limits to the current phase of the technology, a different approach is gaining attention: using living human brain cells as computational ...

One of the central mysteries of the brain is how it achieves so much with so little. At any given moment, it processes an entire world of input, pilots a body and generates conscious experience—all ...

In 2022, Cortical Labs demonstrated a culture of lab-grown human brain cells playing Pong. Now the company claims it has trained its CL-1 chip, composed of 200,000 neurons, to play Doom. Data from the ...

The brain's immune system has long been thought to exist independently from the rest of the body, complete with its own ...

Researchers theorize that further investigation into the stem cell niche—the microenvironment containing nearby cells, blood ...

Scientists have discovered that the aging human brain may be far less isolated from the rest of the body than once believed. Stanford researchers found that large numbers of immune cells from the ...

A new study reveals peripheral blood cells enter the aging human brain and convert into microglia, unlocking new Alzheimer's ...
