Imagine what brain surgeons could do with a three-dimensional (3D)-printed model of the brain. Not a structural model printed in plastic and uniform throughout, but one that mirrors the heterogeneity ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers have now developed a 3D-printed 'brain-like environment' ...

Johns Hopkins University researchers have grown a novel whole-brain organoid, complete with neural tissues and rudimentary blood vessels—an advance that could usher in a new era of research into ...

In 1943, a pair of neuroscientists were trying to describe how the human nervous system works when they accidentally laid the foundation for artificial intelligence. In their mathematical framework ...

You walk into the kitchen and forget why you’re there. You put the milk in the pantry and the keys in the fridge. You lose your train of thought halfway through a sentence. If you’ve recently had a ...

Brain-to-speech interfaces have been promising to help paralyzed individuals communicate for years. Unfortunately, many systems have had significant latency that has left them lacking somewhat in the ...
