For more than a century, the story of the brain has been told as a tale of neurons, with every thought and memory traced to their electrical chatter. That narrative is now being rewritten as evidence ...

A neuron made in the lab now works almost like one in the body. A team of engineers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has announced the creation of an artificial neuron with electrical ...

Living organisms are made up of hundreds of thousands of cells that cooperate to create the organs and systems that breathe, eat, move, and think. Now, researchers from Japan have developed a new way ...

Animal bodies are crackling with electrical signals. Even before development is complete, electric fields guide the movement and arrangement of embryonic cells. 1 In adults, neurons communicate with ...

Researchers developed a chip-based quantum-dot laser that emulates a biological graded neuron while achieving a signal processing speed of 10 GBaud. WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a ...

Researchers have developed a way to grow a highly specialized subset of brain nerve cells that are involved in motor neuron ...
