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

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 ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

It is now understood that the hippocampus is closely linked to learning and memory (Doidge, 2015; Suzuki, 2015). However, this was not always the case. One prominent experiment investigating memory, ...

A single missing molecule in the brain is emerging as a powerful new clue to why learning and memory are altered in Down ...
