Two major studies have unveiled promising new tools for tackling Alzheimer’s disease: Johns Hopkins researchers used lab-grown brain organoids to test patient-specific drug responses and identify ...

The brain has its own immune system, which detects threats and mounts a defense. A growing body of evidence has shown that in ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual category learning task exactly as well as lab animals, but even enabled the ...

Seemingly unrelated diseases and conditions like Alzheimer's disease, obesity, chronic pain, traumatic brain injury, and ...

The Individual Brain Charting (IBC) project has released its fifth and largest update of high-resolution fMRI data, adding a ...

Brain science just pulled off its biggest flex yet. While you were debating whether AI will steal your job, neuroscientists mapped brain tissue with precision that makes your smartphone camera look ...

Efforts to identify and evaluate next-generation therapeutics for pediatric brain tumors are easily stymied by the quality and availability of laboratory models for research. To address this issue, ...

Researchers have created one of the most detailed virtual mouse cortex simulations ever achieved by combining massive biological datasets with the extraordinary power of Japan’s Fugaku supercomputer.

A human brain consumes less power than a light bulb, while artificial intelligence systems guzzle electricity to do the same tasks. Now, scientists have created a highly efficient AI model that hints ...

Every day, your brain makes thousands of decisions under uncertainty. Most of the time, you guess right. When you don't, you learn. But when the brain's ability to judge context or assign meaning ...

I've always wondered what exactly happens inside my brain after a sleepless night. Why does everything feel harder—thinking ...

What if the future of AI wasn’t just faster, but smarter, more efficient, and inspired by the very organ that powers human thought? Enter China’s new Spiking Brain model, a innovative leap in ...
