“We can’t actually build brains,” University of Sussex mathematical physics professor Thomas Nowotny told New Scientist.

Can the brain keep working when its architecture changes? Researchers at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) have discovered ...

The world’s most powerful supercomputers can now run simulations of billions of neurons, and researchers hope such models ...

For more than a century, maps of the brain have been based on how brain tissue looks under the microscope. These anatomical ...

The Allen Institute for Brain Science and the Blue Brain Project are deepening their collaboration. Today, the US-based Allen Institute is releasing a set of 40 computer models of neurons from the ...

Does string theory—the controversial “theory of everything” from physics—tell us anything about consciousness and the human ...

Your brain can still make new neurons when you’re an adult. But how does the rare birth of these new neurons contribute to cognitive function? Researchers know that new neurons contribute to memory ...

A research team has demonstrated how the energy levels of individual neurons in the brain change during so-called spreading depolarizations -- waves of activity that occur in various brain disorders.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) expert, serial entrepreneur, and noted software developer, Charles Simon, CEO of FutureAI has launched Brain Simulator II, a software platform for proving how Artificial ...

During brain development, neurons extend long processes called axons. Axons link different areas of the brain and carry ...

The findings come from the most comprehensive computer model of brain metabolism to date, which incorporates more than 16,800 biochemical interactions between proteins and chemicals across brain cells ...
