Researchers have discovered a network between neurons in the brain that could be the pathway for the spread of plaques that ...

While the exact causes of neurodegenerative brain diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia are still largely unknown, ...

A team at Carnegie Mellon University is helping kids understand artificial intelligence with a soft, squishy, LED-lit neural ...

While the exact causes of neurodegenerative brain diseases like Alzheimer's and dementia are still largely unknown, ...

A drug candidate found to protect nerve cells damaged by motor neuron disease (MND), could offer new hope to people living ...

Scientists reveal mechanical forces move across neuron membranes differently based on obstacle patterns. This explains how ...

A breakthrough in neuromorphic computing could lower the energy consumption of chips and accelerate progress toward artificial general intelligence (AGI). Researchers from the USC Viterbi School of En ...

Researchers found that neurons can use fat, not just sugar, to power the brain. When a protein called DDHD2 fails, this process breaks down and leads to serious brain problems. Scientists were able to ...

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These ...

Researchers found that a rare class of neurons—type-one nNOS neurons—plays a central role in regulating brain blood flow and coordinating neural activity in mice.

Motor neuron diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), share physical ...

The translucent chip attached to the mouse’s leg looked nothing like a neuron. Dotted with a series of sensors and channels and smaller than a human finger, it looked—and flexed—like a Band-Aid. Yet ...
