Cortical Labs connected roughly 800,000 lab-grown human neurons to a high-density electrode array and let them interact with ...

Duke University Medical Center-led research has identified a human-specific DNA enhancer that regulates neural progenitor proliferation and cortical size. Small genetic changes in HARE5 amplify a key ...

The neurons of our brain may not exist in a single state of matter, new research suggests. As detailed in a study, published in the journal Communications Physics, researchers have found signs that ...

Cortical Labs says the stunt points toward a new kind of low-power computing—and perhaps a new way to study neurological ...

Leuven, 7 August 2024—The mechanisms underlying intellectual disabilities or autism remain largely unknown. Researchers in the labs of Prof. Pierre Vanderhaeghen and Prof. Vincent Bonin at the VIB-KU ...

The human brain's remarkably prolonged development is unique among mammals and is thought to contribute to our advanced learning abilities. Disruptions in this process may explain certain ...

A dendrite – an extension of a neuron - from a 12-month-old human cerebral cortex neuron, grown from human stem cells and transplanted into a mouse cerebral cortex. Two human-specific genes, SRGAP2B ...

University of Utah researchers at the Pulst-Scoles Laboratory have discovered that reducing levels of the STAUFEN-1 protein can prevent neuron death caused by DNA damage and p53 activation in ...

The images above depict artificially-derived neurons grown in petri dishes, with a human neuron shown on the left. Artificially-derived chimpanzee neurons grow only one or two neurites (connecting ...
