Scientists placed 200,000 living human brain cells on a microchip and taught it how to play a doomsday video game — and are now using the dystopian tech to power AI data centers. Australian biotech ...

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, often debilitating autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system (CNS). This disease causes the immune system to mistakenly attack the protective ...

Specific neurons in the motor cortex of the brain are linked to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD), offering targets for tailored therapies.

When we learn a new skill, the brain has to decide—cell by cell—what to change. New research from MIT suggests it can do that with surprising precision, sending targeted feedback to individual neurons ...

Researchers mapped distinct cancer cell communities within supratentorial ependymoma tumors, showing how different cell types drive tumor growth, mobility, and interactions with the brain environment.

Tiny plastic particles may be quietly threatening brain health. New research suggests microplastics—now widely found in food, ...

Scientists have discovered that a genetic change found in animals living at very high altitudes may help repair damage in the ...

Tiny fragments of plastic known as microplastics may be contributing to neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. A new study outlines five biological mechanisms ...

Australian biotech group, Cortical Labs, is using living human brain cells to power AI data centers, training these neuron-powered microchips to play video games.

Your brain can outperform just about any computer out there. So, how come it needs barely any energy to do so?
