Scientists have built an artificial neuron that’s so realistic it fires, learns, and responds to chemical signals just like ...
Artificial neuron breakthrough at UMass could enable bio-computing, wearables, and direct cell-device interfaces.
UMass Amherst engineers create low-voltage artificial neurons using bacterial nanowires, promising efficient bio-inspired ...
The neurons in our brains and bodies do amazing things: sense the outside world, transmit information, guide our behavior. But they don’t do it alone. Using tiny worms with well-mapped nervous systems ...
The breakdown of the blood-brain barrier accompanies many neurological conditions, including epilepsy and multiple sclerosis, and neurodegenerative diseases of aging, such as Alzheimer's disease and ...
A study has described how a gene mutation linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) disrupts the stability of neurons and “chokes off” their nuclei, impairing their function. The research, ...
