SINGAPORE] The brain is full of unsolved mysteries. One startup thinks that it can crack these puzzles – and even open up new ...

Researchers from Sweden have discovered that the human brain continues to grow new cells in the memory region—called the hippocampus—even into old age. Using advanced tools to examine brain samples ...

A study in the journal Science presents compelling new evidence that neurons in the brain's memory centre, the hippocampus, ...

Predicting how molecular changes affect the brain's overall activity is a major challenge in neuroscience. Many deep questions about the brain can only be understood by looking at several layers of ...

The carbon cost escalates when reasoning capabilities are activated. Reasoning-enabled models such as DeepSeek-R1 70B and Cogito 70B emitted up to six times more CO₂eq than their default ...

Bio-inspired neuron models are the key building blocks of brain-like neural networks for brain-science exploration and neuromorphic engineering applications. The efficient hardware design of ...

Powering down The team also used a well-established mouse model known as experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) — a mouse model that develops MS-like symptoms — to investigate mitochondrial ...

Inorganic mercury salts (iHg) are mercury compounds that lack carbon–hydrogen bonds. Exposure to iHg is associated with toxic effects, primarily shown in animal studies, yet the lack of cross-species ...

Models with reverberating activity are particularly interesting owing to their potential ability to generate spontaneous activity. For instance, spiking neuron networks with symmetric recurrent ...

A generalized rotate-and-fire digital spiking neuron model that can be implemented by a simple asynchronous sequential logic circuit is proposed. The model can exhibit various nonlinear phenomena and ...
