A major neuroscience breakthrough has been achieved with the help of an artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning algorithm. In a study published this month in Cell, a multinational team of ...

They created a library of the different electrical signatures for each type of neuron, which then allowed them to train an AI algorithm that can automatically recognise five different types of neurons ...

In the developing brain, neurons must navigate through complex and often crowded tissue to reach their final destinations—this process is crucial for proper brain formation and function. Similar to ...

Shifting focus on a visual scene without moving our eyes — think driving, or reading a room for the reaction to your joke — is a behavior known as covert attention. We do it all the time, but little ...

Two types of neurons in the skin may be particularly important for how the brain interprets social contact between people, according to a new study led by Linköping University in Sweden. Knowledge of ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far surpassing previous efforts that produced only a few dozen. By ...
