Neuroscientists have unveiled an engineered protein that lets them watch incoming signals wash over neurons in real time, turning what used to be invisible chemical whispers into vivid, trackable ...

Cold does not feel the same on your fingertips as it does deep in your chest, and new research shows that this is not just a ...

We can replace joints, lenses, even organs—but not the brain. As neuroscience unravels the mechanisms of neurodegeneration, ...

For most people, the loss of a sense such as sight is devastating, not only for intensifying vulnerability, but for ...

The researchers behind the recent work, based in China, decided to implement something similar for an artificial skin that ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual ...

This study presents SynaptoGen, a differentiable extension of connectome models that links gene expression, protein-protein interaction probabilities, synaptic multiplicity, and synaptic weights, and ...

Keep that in your back pocket for the next time someone tells you that you’re too sensitive – you can’t help it.

Robots now see the world with an ease that once belonged only to science fiction. They can recognise objects, navigate ...
