A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...

The brain’s chatter has always been partly out of reach, with electrical spikes easy to record but the chemical whispers ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology not only learned a simple visual category learning task exactly as well as lab animals, but even enabled the ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...
