New research shows that physical pressure from brain tumors or injuries triggers a "self-destruction" program in neurons, leading to irreversible brain damage.

Abstract: The main objectives of neuromorphic engineering are the research, modeling, and implementation of neural functioning in the human brain. We provide a hardware solution that can replicate ...

A new AI tool that accurately predicts the need for a feeding tube could transform patient care and improve quality of life ...

Brain cells are constantly swallowing material from the fluid that surrounds them—signaling molecules, nutrients, even pieces of their own surfaces—in a process known as endocytosis that is essential ...

Researchers at the University of Missouri School of Medicine may have found a link between high blood pressure and an overactive sympathetic nervous system.

An efficient neural screening approach rapidly identifies circuit modules governing distinct behavioral transitions in ...

To think, feel, talk and move, neurons send messages through electrical signals in the brain and spinal cord.This intricate communication network is ...

Hooker says she wants to "eliminate prompt engineering" with AI models that intuitively adapt to varying tasks ...

Apple’s Xcode 26.3 adds Claude Agent SDK integration, enabling autonomous AI coding and visual verification while reshaping ...

Using an aging clock, researchers from the University of Cologne have used the Caenorhabditis elegans model organism to demonstrate that nerve cells age differently. They identified both the causes of ...

Immunotherapy that blocks microglial Fcγ receptors prevents dopaminergic neuron loss in Parkinson’s disease, revealing a potential new strategy.

Abstract: Memristors, with their unique nonlinear characteristics, are highly suitable for construction novel neural models with rich dynamic behaviors. In this paper, a memristor with piecewise ...
