A male fruit fly in a laboratory chamber extends his wings and vibrates them to produce his species' version of a love song.

USC researchers built artificial neurons that replicate real brain processes using ion-based diffusive memristors. These devices emulate how neurons use chemicals to transmit and process signals, ...

Engineers at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst have developed an artificial neuron like no other. In experiments, their newly created model was able to directly communicate with a biological ...

Scientists build artificial neurons that work like real ones Researchers have created low-voltage artificial neurons using bacteria-grown protein nanowires, enabling direct communication with ...

The new model developed by Flatiron Institute researchers proposes that biological neurons have more control over their surroundings than previously thought, something that could be replicated in the ...

For the first time, a lab-grown brain-computer system has demonstrated that human neurons living and evolving in an artificial system respond to medication by learning, in real time, in a game-like ...

A new imaging technique developed at the University of Illinois now gives researchers a way to watch the flow of mass -- the molecular flux of life itself -- as living nerve nets begin to crystallize.

Most people wouldn’t give Geobacter sulfurreducens a second look. The bacteria was first discovered in a ditch in rural Oklahoma. But the lowly microbe has a superpower. It grows protein nanotubes ...
