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

This study presents SynaptoGen, a differentiable extension of connectome models that links gene expression, protein-protein interaction probabilities, synaptic multiplicity, and synaptic weights, 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 ...

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

The familiar fight between “mind as software” and “mind as biology” may be a false choice. This work proposes biological computationalism: the idea that brains compute, but not in the abstract, symbol ...

For decades, depression treatment has focused almost entirely on the brain, with drugs designed to tweak neurotransmitters ...

Research reveals why AI systems can't become conscious—and what radically different computing substrates would be needed to ...

A new theoretical framework argues that the long-standing split between computational functionalism and biological naturalism misses how real brains actually compute.

A single microscopic change in our DNA can permanently alter how the brain is built, locking in developmental problems that ...

Prof Brennan uses a surgical drill to remove a flap of skull. The exposed brain is pink, flushed with blood, and gently ...

Comprehensive analysis examines the 40Hz gamma wave audio program, its neuroscience research foundation, and how it compares to supplements, brain training apps, and other cognitive wellness approache ...

Is curing Alzheimer’s an impossible challenge or can we get there? I was invited to attend brain surgery at the forefront of dementia research. I’m wearing a surgical gown in the back ...
