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

The neurons of our brain may not exist in a single state of matter, new research suggests. As detailed in a study, published in the journal Communications Physics, researchers have found signs that ...

Cellular maturation involves transcriptional, metabolic, and physiological changes that drive cell function. In human neurons, this process takes longer than in most other cell types, lasting almost ...

The company Cortical Labs has just launched a computer integrating human neurons grown in a laboratory. Named "CL1," it paves ...

For decades, scientists believed the human brain stopped producing new neurons after childhood. This long-held view painted the adult brain as a fixed organ, incapable of generating fresh cells in the ...

The human brain must be able to link memory content to the circumstances in which it occurs. Researchers in Bonn have now discovered how the human brain uses two different groups of neurons to store ...

Australian company Cortical Labs launched the world's first commercial biological computer made from human brain cells fused with silicon hardware. As reported in New Atlas, the CL1 uses 800,000 ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Journalist, analyst, author, podcaster. The world’s first “code-deployable” biological computer is now for sale. The Cortical Labs ...

Artificial intelligence systems, even those as sophisticated as ChatGPT, depend on the same silicon-based hardware that has been the bedrock of computing since the 1950s. But what if computers could ...

Our brain is an energy-efficient marvel, with 86 billion neurons and trillions of connections running on just 20 watts—the energy of a single lightbulb. Swiss innovators at Final Spark are ...
