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 ...

The world’s most powerful supercomputers can now run simulations of billions of neurons, and researchers hope such models ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Scientists showed that it’s possible to reproduce an entire cerebral cortex inside one of the world’s fastest computers. The model represents the ...

New research shows that advances in technology could help make future supercomputers far more energy efficient. Neuromorphic computers are modeled after the structure of the human brain, and researche ...

The way the brain develops can shape us throughout our lives, so neuroscientists are intensely curious about how it happens.

Pea-size clusters of human cells called brain organoids inspire both hope and fear. Experts are debating how scientists can ...
