The team’s advance changes this. “Ours register only 0.1 volts, which about the same as the neurons in our bodies,” says Yao.

Scientists have built an artificial neuron that’s so realistic it fires, learns, and responds to chemical signals just like ...

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 ...

Artificial neuron breakthrough at UMass could enable bio-computing, wearables, and direct cell-device interfaces.

The human brain does more than simply regulate synapses that exchange signals; individual neurons also process information ...

Researchers at Linköping University have built artificial neurons from conductive plastics that replicate up to 17 biological ...

Investigators at Cedars-Sinai have created computer-generated models to bridge the gap between "test tube" data about neurons and the function of those cells in the living brain. Their study, ...

Researchers have made a surprising discovery linking Delta/Notch signaling in subperineurial glia (SPG) to the regulation of nerve ensheathment and neurotransmitter release at the Drosophila ...

Scientists studying neuronal energy metabolism found evidence the loss of an important energy regulator called AMPK in neural stem cells or glial cells called astrocytes causes neuronal death in ...
