Understanding how the human brain stores information and later uses it to complete various tasks has been a long-standing goal of neuroscience and psychology research. Past studies have identified ...

When I began my master’s program in cognitive science, an electrical engineering professor told us—rather arrogantly—that the soul is nothing but neurons firing. “You’re deluded if you think otherwise ...

The brain is constantly mapping the external world like a GPS, even when we don't know about it. This activity comes in the form of tiny electrical signals sents between neurons -- specialized cells ...

The human brain is made up of billions of nerve cells, or neurons, that communicate with each other in vast, interconnected networks. For the brain to function reliably, there needs to be a fine ...

The realm of artificial intelligence is all set for a major transformation with the advent of brain-inspired computing. One of the key players in this revolution is the Mott neurons, particularly ...
