Every thought, memory, and feeling we experience depends on trillions of tiny connection points in the brain called synapses.

Researchers have demonstrated that brain cells learn faster and carry out complex networking more effectively than machine learning by comparing how both a Synthetic Biological Intelligence (SBI) ...

Northwestern University engineers printed artificial neurons that don't just imitate the brain—they talk to it. In a new ...

COLUMBUS, Ohio – New research reveals how a class of neurons that help coordinate communication in the brain link up with their target cells, identifying two molecules that must be present before ...

A growing body of research suggests astrocytes, star-shaped brain cells once dismissed as support players, may lead the way ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By tracking glutamate in real time, scientists can finally see how neurons process ...

Whether or not we grow new brain cells as adults has been the subject of an ongoing and often contentious debate. Now, evidence suggests that we can. This could help answer one of neuroscience’s most ...
