A new study from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Biology has uncovered how the MN1 gene evolved to shape both the ...

These are nerves that go from the brain and brain stem to the eyes, nose, ears, tongue, face and shoulders. Cranial nerves carry messages from these areas about sensations such as taste, smell, sight ...

In the future, quantum technology will become the standard for extremely fast computers. These kinds of machines will be important in everything from space technology to mineral exploration and ...

Engineers at RMIT University have invented a small "neuromorphic" device that detects hand movement, stores memories and processes information like a human brain, without the need for an external ...

asked AlKhamissi. More broadly, the researchers believe that these studies help to solve the puzzle of the internal workings of large language models, relating back to neuroscience and making ...

The human brain, often hailed as nature’s most powerful computer, is surprisingly slow when it comes to handling information. While our senses gather a mountain of data every second, our actual ...

What a perfect way to study the genetics of the human brain.” Huttenlocher was happy to collaborate, and Walsh identified the mutant gene responsible for PVNH. To find more of these brain ...

Researchers have discovered distinct roles for two dopamine receptors located on nerve cells within the portion of the brain that controls approach vs. avoidance behavior. Mount Sinai researchers ...

Cortical Labs out of Melbourne, Australia has created the CL1, the “world’s first code deployable biological computer” that runs on living, lab-grown human brain cells. Bonus: it is now available for ...
