Researchers examining the brain at a single-neuron level found that computation happens not just in the interaction between neurons, but within each individual neuron. Each of these cells, it turns ...

Researchers say study findings may lead to a more promising future for cell therapy targeting stroke and other neurological disorders.

The human brain, with its billions of interconnected neurons giving rise to consciousness, is generally considered the most powerful and flexible computer in the known universe. Yet for decades ...

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 ...

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? Researchers know that new neurons contribute to memory ...

Both, human brain and modern artificial neural networks are extremely powerful. At the lowest level, the neurons work together as rather simple computing units. An artificial neural network typically ...

Scientists just taught hundreds of thousands of neurons in a dish to play Pong. Using a series of strategically timed and placed electrical zaps, the neurons not only learned the game in a virtual ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming our world, but within this broad domain, two distinct technologies often confuse people: machine learning (ML) and generative AI. While both are ...

Machine learning is a subfield of artificial intelligence, which explores how to computationally simulate (or surpass) humanlike intelligence. While some AI techniques (such as expert systems) use ...
