Neuron, a leader in aviation technology and air traffic critical national infrastructure, has leveraged the Hedera network, the most used, sustainable, enterprise-grade public ledger for the ...

The progression of Alzheimer's disease is poorly understood, but new research may have found how the plaques that cause it ...

A drug candidate found to protect nerve cells damaged by motor neuron disease (MND), could offer new hope to people living ...

Intel has built the world's largest neuromorphic system, a computing system that is modelled after the human brain and nervous system. Code named Hala Point, the 1.15 billion neuron system advances ...

Scientists from the Faculty of Physics at the University of Warsaw and the Polish Academy of Sciences used photons to create a spiking neuron, i.e. the basic element of the future photonic neural ...

A new UCLA study released today suggests that a dysfunctional mirror neuron system may underlie the social deficits observed in autism. Larry Mantle talks with the study’s lead author, Mirella ...

The feel of a cat's fur can reveal some information, but seeing the feline provides critical details: is it a housecat or a lion? While the sound of fire crackling may be ambiguous, its scent confirms ...

Seeing is doing – at least it is when mirror neurons are working normally. But in autistic individuals, say researchers from the University of California, San Diego, the brain circuits that enable ...

Researchers found that neurons can use fat, not just sugar, to power the brain. When a protein called DDHD2 fails, this process breaks down and leads to serious brain problems. Scientists were able to ...

The concept has since been studied in humans, including infants, to understand how the early mirror neuron system functions. From what we know, parent-infant interactions heavily influence development ...
