Scientists have developed a new kind of laser-based artificial neuron that mimics a biological nerve cell. This artificial ...

Artificially engineered biological processes, such as perception systems, remain an elusive target for organic electronics experts due to the reliance of human senses on an adaptive network of sensory ...

The advance from a team with Professor Tobin Marks and research assistant professor Yao Yao could enable perceptual capabilities in robotics.

Researchers from Northwestern and Georgia Tech developed an organic electrochemical neuron that fires at human-like frequencies, enabling real-time tactile signal processing. Their system integrates ...

“Our laser-graded neuron overcomes the speed limitations ... known as a reservoir, to process data that changes over time. This is particularly useful for tasks like speech recognition and ...

Scientists have confirmed the world’s largest underground thermal lake, known as Neuron lake, inside a cave in southern ...

New research on nematodes reveals how glial cells maintain and monitor neuronal dendrites. Neurons may get all the glory, but they would be nothing without glial cells. While brain cells do the heavy ...

The amygdala processes emotions, and connects those emotions to tasks like learning, memory formation, and sensory processing. It’s also the home of the fight or flight response. The neuron ...

Upon light exposure, we observe the formation of LIPA-α-synuclein aggregates (green) in the soma and the neuron processes (MAP2; magenta).
