The secret to human cognition might lie in the complex computing power of individual brain cells
A recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences suggests that individual cells in the human ...
Scientists have uncovered how a newly discovered gene, NEK1, in which mutations have been linked to ALS cases, disrupts the function of the motor neuron and causes it to degenerate and die. The viral ...

New light-sensing device acts like a neuron in the human brain
A small device that senses light and reacts like a brain cell could change how machines see and think. Built at the nanoscale ...
While E. Josie Clowney would never suggest that neuroscience is simple, a new study by her team at the University of Michigan could drastically reduce complexity in future studies. Their work focused ...
