Boosting communication between the spinal nerves and the muscles using the spinal cord stimulation reverses spinal muscle atrophy (SMA) progression and could be applied to other motoneuron diseases, ...

Israeli researchers have identified a neural circuit that enables the brain to regulate immune system activity through associative learning.

The findings demonstrate that the brain and the immune system collaborate to prepare for future challenges and reveal how they "learn" to activate the immune system based solely on sensory information ...

Advancements could enhance perceptual capabilities in robotics. Artificially engineered biological processes, such as ...

As the February half-term approaches and families look for places to visit, here are some of the top accessible attractions ...

Dolphins have specialized receptors to detect fatty acids in mother's milk, aiding in assessing nutritional value of food.

The human brain filters trillions of sensory inputs down to just 10 bits per second, a cognitive bottleneck shaped by ...

A local sensory charity helped celebrate 200 years since the introduction of Braille with a fun-filled and educational event to mark the bicentenary.

Can organic electronics be used to mimic biological processes like sensory systems? This is what a recent study published in the Proceedings of the Nationa | Technology ...

Kaboom! The first time most of us hear the sound of an explosion is in the movies. Encountering the sound in the real ...

Artificially engineered biological processes, such as perception systems, remain an elusive target for organic electronics experts due to the reliance of human senses on an adaptive network of sensory ...

A new collaboration between Northwestern University and Georgia Tech has led to the development of an artificial electrochemical neuron that mimics human neural responses, paving the way for smarter ...
