As prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers eye limits to the current phase of the technology, a different approach ...

Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development ...

Pea-size clusters of human cells called brain organoids inspire both hope and fear. Experts are debating how scientists can responsibly use these bits of gray matter.

The human brain is a fascinating and complex organ that supports numerous sophisticated behaviors and abilities that are observed in no other animal species. For centuries, scientists have been trying ...

Researchers uncover evidence that the gut microbiome and brain connection can influence brain gene expression and neural ...

The brains of humans and other mammals contain a vast array of neuronal and non-neuronal cell types. The human capacity to process information into complex emotions, behaviours and decisions relies on ...

Given the complexity of the process, it’s astonishing any human has ever mastered the ability to read. Although written language is ancient — we’ve been at it for roughly 5,000 years — it’s not an ...
