For decades, researchers have debated whether brain cells called astrocytes can signal like neurons. Researchers recently published the best evidence yet that some astrocytes are part of the ...
Researchers at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) and Uniklinikum Erlangen have succeeded in preserving brain tissue through extreme deep freezing. After thawing, the neurons ...
Most people wouldn’t give Geobacter sulfurreducens a second look. The bacteria was first discovered in a ditch in rural Oklahoma. But the lowly microbe has a superpower. It grows protein nanotubes ...
Researchers at the Baylor College of Medicine and the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute at the Texas Children’s Hospital have uncovered a new cell type in the human brain. The team ...
Living human neurons were trained to play Doom, extending the long-running engineering benchmark into biological computing.
Animal bodies are crackling with electrical signals. Even before development is complete, electric fields guide the movement and arrangement of embryonic cells. 1 In adults, neurons communicate with ...
A dish of living human neurons has been taught to play Doom. No, it isn’t conscious or watching the screen the way players do. But it is learning to respond to signals in a way that produces ...
Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute at Texas Children’s Hospital have uncovered a new cell type in the human brain. The study published ...
