New findings reveal that certain areas of the brain influence how neurons transmit signals and control their range.

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By tracking glutamate in real time, scientists can finally see how neurons process ...

Engineers at Northwestern University have taken a striking leap toward merging machines with the human brain by printing artificial neurons that can actually communicate with real ones. These flexible ...

Scientists have created artificial neurons that can communicate directly with real brain cells, opening the door to new medical devices and more efficient computing. In a new study from Northwestern ...

A new computer simulation of how our brains develop and grow neurons has been built by scientists from the University of Surrey. Along with improving our understanding of how the brain works, ...

The human brain contains nearly 86 billion neurons, constantly exchanging messages like an immense social media network, but neurons do not work alone – glial cells, neurotransmitters, receptors, and ...

A thin strip of flexible film, printed with layers of graphene and molybdenum disulfide ink, fired electrical spikes into a ...

Northwestern University engineers printed artificial neurons that don't just imitate the brain - they talk to it. In a new study, the Northwestern team developed flexible, low-cost devices that ...

Northwestern University researchers have demonstrated that fully printed artificial neurons can send electrical signals to living mouse brain tissue and receive responses. Using aerosol-jet printing ...
