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

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

A new ‘biomimetic’ model of brain circuits and function at multiple scales produced naturalistic dynamics and learning, and ...

A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...

Precise changes in the connectivity between neurons caused by an imbalance of gut bacteria may help explain depressive ...

Even mild dehydration can affect the brain, causing cells to shrink and mental performance to decline. Research shows that ...

Oral bacteria that migrate to the gut can generate metabolites that reach the brain and accelerate Parkinson’s disease.

From diet and exercise to sleep, sensory health, and social connection, protecting your brain starts long before old age ...

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

Memory fades in tiny pieces when the brain is not fed well over long stretches of time. Ageing alone is not the enemy, but ...
