MIT scientists have developed a new 3D human brain tissue model that could change how researchers study neurological diseases. The platform, called Multicellular Integrated Brains or miBrains, ...

Understanding cellular metabolism in complex 3D brain models is crucial for revealing insights into aging, disease and neurodegeneration. Traditional methods using 2D cultures or isolated mitochondria ...

European roboticists today released a powerful open-source artificial intelligence model that acts as a brain for industrial robots—helping them grasp and manipulate things with new dexterity. The new ...

The neurons in our brain that underlie thought connect to each other using tiny branch-like structures on their surfaces known as dendritic spines. Now scientists at Columbia's Zuckerman Institute and ...

ByteDance’s Seed team has launched Seed3D 1.0, a diffusion transformer-based model capable of generating simulation-grade 3D assets from a single image. The model produces detailed geometry, realistic ...

Recent studies have unveiled a startling phenomenon in the realm of artificial intelligence (AI): cognitive decline, or “brain rot,” in AI models, including large language models (LLMs). This decline, ...

This study offers a valuable advance for neuroscience by extending a visualization tool that enables intuitive assessment of how dendritic and synaptic currents shape the output of neurons. The ...

The Society for Neuroscience (SfN) will honor seven early career researchers whose awards will be presented during Neuroscience 2025, SfN's annual meeting.

Researchers have synthesized enhanced vitamin K analogues that outperform natural vitamin K in promoting neuron growth. The new compounds, which combine vitamin K with retinoic acid, activate the ...

Difficulty completing everyday tasks. Failing memory. Unusually poor concentration. For many people living with schizophrenia, cognitive challenges are part of daily life. Alongside well-known ...
