Neuroscientists want to understand how individual neurons encode information that allows us to distinguish objects, like telling a leaf apart from a rock. But they have struggled to build ...

In a breakthrough discovery, an international team of neuroscientists has identified how individual neurons in the brain fire differently when a new memory is formed. This is the first time ...

A study has demonstrated how neurons in the human brain generate memories and establish narratives. Contrary to previous beliefs, individual neurons represent the concepts we learn, regardless of the ...

Scientists have successfully mapped the brain neurons (neurons) activated when mice make decisions, marking the first large-scale recording of individual neuron activity across the entire mouse brain.

Researchers have developed a new type of pipette that can deliver ions to individual neurons without affecting the sensitive extracellular milieu. Controlling the concentration of different ions can ...

Mirror neurons are a type of brain cell that is activated both when performing an action and when observing another individual perform that same action, a process thought to help an individual ...

The deep learning field has been dominated by “large models” requiring massive computational resources and energy, leading to unsustainable environmental and economic challenges. To address this, ...

Living neurons receive signals from different sources, process them and pass an output signal on to other neurons (left). In the artificial neuron model, this information processing can be described ...
