The medical consequences of traumatic brain injuries are well-studied and affect millions of Americans every year. But one of ...

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

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

The German team now believes it can overcome hurdles that stalled previous attempts, such as the decade-old Human Brain ...

Researchers are no longer just simulating brains in silicon, they are wiring living human neurons into machines and asking them to compute. Tiny clusters of brain cells, grown from stem cells and ...

Researchers have crossed a threshold that once belonged squarely to science fiction: they have built working models of brains, both in silicon and in living tissue, that can learn, adapt, and even ...

Neural tissue engineering aims to mimic the brain's complex environment, the extracellular matrix, which supports nerve cell growth, development, and proper connectivity. This environment is carefully ...

BigBrain, a 3D digital reconstruction of a human brain, provides a first-ever high resolution view of the inner workings of the human brain that could lead to better understanding of how we think, ...

Every moment, the brain balances signals that unfold at different speeds. Some arrive in milliseconds, such as a sudden sound ...

The European Commission (EC) has released the 10-year assessment of the Human Brain Project (HBP), an EU-Flagship initiative that concluded in 2023. The report was authored by a panel of independent ...
