Despite lacking a hippocampus entirely—and having diverged from the mammalian lineage roughly 400 million years ago—larval ...

Neuromorphic computers, inspired by the architecture of the human brain, are proving surprisingly adept at solving complex mathematical problems that underpin scientific and engineering challenges.

Neuromorphic computing, inspired by the brain, integrates memory and processing to drastically reduce power consumption compared to traditional CPUs and GPUs, making AI at the network edge more ...

At every CES I’ve ever been to, there’s been one or two gadgets promising to boost your mental health. In recent years, the ...

The world’s most powerful supercomputers can now run simulations of billions of neurons, and researchers hope such models ...

Scientists in China have created a flexible, thread-like "fiber chip" that can be woven into fabric, opening the door to garments that function as interactive screens, advanced brain implants capable ...

Consciousness has long resisted neat explanations, but a growing body of research suggests the problem may lie in how we picture the brain’s information processing. Instead of behaving like a tidy ...

When a molecule of tryptophan absorbs ultraviolet light, it glows faintly as it releases energy at a lower frequency. This effect, called fluorescence, is well known. But something extraordinary ...

Our thoughts are specified by our knowledge and plans, yet our cognition can also be fast and flexible in handling new information. How does the well-controlled and yet highly nimble nature of ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These devices emulate how neurons use chemicals to transmit and process signals, ...

Chinese researchers have created a new computing architecture that boosts processing performance by nearly ...

New research shows that advances in technology could help make future supercomputers far more energy efficient. Neuromorphic computers are modeled after the structure of the human brain, and researche ...
