Researchers at Brown’s Carney Institute for Brain Science identified a pair of neurons that integrate sweet and bitter ...

Researchers discover the SELK neuron, a single-cell decision-maker in fruit flies that weighs sweet vs. bitter signals to determine whether to eat or flee.

Scientists created an artificial neuron that operates at the same voltage as living cells and is able to communicate with the human brain.

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 create the first high-resolution molecular atlas of the fruit fly brain, revealing how lineage and birth order define neuronal identity.

Humans have the remarkable ability to remember the same person or object in completely different situations. We can easily distinguish between dinner with a friend and a business meeting with the same ...

Cortical Labs, the Melbourne-based biotech company that made headlines by teaching neurons to play Pong, is now building two small data centers powered by lab-grown human brain cells in Singapore and ...
