At first glance, the idea sounds implausible: a computer made not of silicon, but of living brain cells. It’s the kind of ...

A new, high-performance brain-computer interface (BCI) can be rapidly implanted through a minimally invasive procedure. The ...

The Nature Index 2024 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

Researchers have crossed a threshold that once belonged squarely to science fiction: they have built working models of brains ...

Researchers at Tianjin University and the Southern University of Science and Technology in China have created a “human-on-chip” system that combines human brain matter with a neural interface chip and ...

Organoids have revolutionized science and medicine, providing platforms for disease modeling, drug testing, and understanding developmental processes. While not exact replicas of human organs, they ...

Johns Hopkins University researchers have grown a novel whole-brain organoid, complete with neural tissues and rudimentary blood vessels—an advance that could usher in a new era of research into ...

The awardees and summary of each project are listed below: Integrated Human Brain Organoid Systems for Adaptive Reservoir Computing, University of Michigan — By combining neuromorphic computing theory ...

Experimental platform to understand brain disorders During development, the forming brain is patterned by different signaling molecules, so-called morphogens. In the newly presented method, the ...

Brain organoids are valuable models for studying neurological diseases. However, they mature slowly, limiting their utility for conditions that develop over decades. Until now, stimulation methods ...
