Researchers at the USC Viterbi School of Engineering and School of Advanced Computing have developed artificial neurons that ...

Using single-cell RNA sequencing and genetic screening, the researchers identified key surface proteins that mediate ...

Scientists develop artificial neurons that physically mimic brain activity, paving the way for low-power, high-efficiency AI ...

The human brain can do many amazing things, but self-repair is not one of its repertoire of abilities. Once neurons die—from ...

Your brain can still make new neurons when you’re an adult. But how does the rare birth of these new neurons contribute to cognitive function? Neurons are the cells that govern brain function, and you ...

Researchers have discovered how newly created neurons depend on blood flow in the adult brain to travel from their site of ...

We found that new neurons in the adult brain are linked to reduced cognitive decline—particularly in verbal learning, or learning by listening to others. Researchers know that new neurons contribute ...

Researchers have identified a rare type of brain cell whose overactivity may contribute to schizophrenia-like symptoms, such as cognitive deficits and disrupted sleep.

A tiny neural network is sufficient to control the daily rhythm of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. Researchers at the ...

For example, a team at Caltech has identified two distinct types of neurons in the abdomens of mice that appear to control different aspects of digestion. The finding, reported in the journal Nature, ...

A new vitamin K-based treatment could help replenish lost neurons in Alzheimer's patients, offering hope for slowing ...
