Abstract: Network function virtualization (NFV) facilitates different virtual network functions (VNF) to be dynamically chained in sequence to offer new services in a flexible, scalable, and ...

If we can fully map the structure of our brains, will we be able to understand how they work? That is the goal of researchers attempting to build a wiring diagram, or connectome, of our neural ...

Japan—a key ally in the United States' strategy to counter potential Chinese aggression—has expanded the number of airports and seaports available for use in the event of a contingency. A total of 14 ...

Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain’s wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

Blink and you might have missed it. FATMAP is back! Well, sort of. As we already lamented here on POWDER, our favorite 3D mapping app FATMAP was shut off for good last fall after being acquired by ...

Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is a key molecule involved in inflammation and plays an important role in both healthy and diseased states. In disease, high levels of IL-1 in the brain are linked to ...

Scientists have traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord. A new brain map visualizes the connections between the brain and spinal cord at the ...

The vagus nerve is a vine of nerve fibers with roots in nearly every organ and shoots in the brain. It helps us detect a racing heart, rising blood pressure, stomachache, discomfort, an overzealous ...

A new way of mapping activity and connections between different regions of the brain has revealed fresh insights into how higher order functions like language, thought and attention, are organized. A ...
