Recent technological advances facilitate the reconstruction of complete brain connectomes in small organisms and partial connectomes in mammals, involving the mapping of the network of neurons and ...

International researchers develop NTAC, an AI that identifies neuronal types with 90% accuracy based purely on synaptic connectivity, outperforming traditional shape-based methods.

Most conversations about aging focus on what declines. Memory gets slower. Joints get stiffer. Energy drops. And while those things are real, there is a ...

At GTC 2026, Jensen Huang, Aravind Srinivas, Harrison Chase, Mira Murati, and Michael Truell made a compelling case that the future of AI belongs to open agent systems, not just open models.

AI is transforming how we think and work—but at a cognitive cost. This piece explores “AI brain fry,” the pressures driving it, and how we can protect focus, clarity, and well-being.

Researchers develop TRFS, a non-invasive radio frequency technique that can suppress or excite deep-brain activity to treat depression, epilepsy, and Parkinson’s.

This essay continues my fascination with Franz Kafka’s essay, A Report to the Academy, as a springboard for how an LLM might be compared to Red Peter in Kafka’s essay. There will be, of course, a next ...

New analyses show DLB patients with lower plasma pTau181 levels - indicating an earlier stage of disease and absence of ...

Researchers at the Wyss Institute at Harvard University and Tufts University have engineered tiny living constructs from frog embryo cells that spontaneously develop functional nervous systems, a ...

New treatments for neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and motor neuron disease (MND) could be unlocked thanks to microscopic medicines developed by researchers at the University ...
