Scientists have created artificial neurons that can communicate directly with real brain cells, opening the door to new ...

Engineers at Northwestern University have taken a striking leap toward merging machines with the human brain by printing ...

Researchers are no longer just simulating brains in silicon, they are wiring living human neurons into machines and asking them to compute. Tiny clusters of brain cells, grown from stem cells and ...

In about one out of every 1,000 pregnancies, the neural tube, a key nervous system structure, fails to close properly.

The technology is still in its infancy. But its trajectory suggests that ethical conversations may become pressing far sooner than expected. These “biocomputers” are still in their early days. They ...

As prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers eye limits to the current phase of the technology, a different approach is gaining attention: using living human brain cells as computational ...

Nothing rivals the human brain's complexity. Its 86 billion neurons and 85 billion other cells make an estimated 100 trillion ...

The result supports earlier studies that used brain imaging to find evidence that the same neural circuits are involved in ...

Explore how brain computer interface technology and advanced brain-computer interfaces are transforming digital interaction, ...

Northwestern University engineers printed artificial neurons that don't just imitate the brain—they talk to it. In a new ...
