The use of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, such as the models underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT and various other ...

Programmable 2D nanochannels mimic both synaptic behaviour and multiple memory types, marking a major advance in neuromorphic computing. (Nanowerk News) Researchers at The University of Manchester’s ...

By adding, removing, strengthening, or weakening synaptic contacts, our brain encodes new events or forgets previous ones. In AD, synaptic plasticity, the brain's ability to regulate the strength of ...

Cognitive tasks, such as learning and memory, require rapid changes to proteins at synapses, such as protein synthesis, degradation, and trafficking. How protein post-translational modifications ...

A pressure-mechanical integrated synaptic device inspired by human skin mechanoreceptors and synapses that recognizes different touch patterns for discrete affective state classification. Human ...

Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they have used a "zap-and-freeze" technology to watch hard-to-see brain cell communications in living brain tissue from mice and humans. Findings from the new ...

Researchers from Kyushu University discovered a previously unrecognized synaptic "hotspot" that forms during adolescence, challenging the long-held view that adolescent brain development was dominated ...
