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 ...

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, ...

A team from Princeton has designed a three-dimensional device that merges living neurons with electronics. This system can be ...

The cerebral cortex, the outer layer of the mammalian brain, is known to play a key role in numerous higher-level processes, including language, memory and decision-making. While countless studies ...

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

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

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 ...
