Drug addiction carries an extremely high risk of relapse, as cravings can be reignited by minor stimuli even long after one has stopped using. Previously, this phenomenon was attributed to a decline ...

A computer platform that runs on human neurons (and recently showed off said neurons’ ability to play DOOM) now wants in on the data center boom. Australia-based Cortical Labs announced today that it ...

Cortical Labs is building two data centres that will house its neuron-filled chips. The technology is still in the very early stages of development ...

Researchers identify five specific neuron subgroups in the motor cortex most vulnerable to TDP-43 protein clumps in ALS and Frontotemporal Dementia.

Researchers identify PV neurons in the prefrontal cortex as the gatekeepers of drug addiction relapse, offering a new target for precision treatment.

Scientists grew 8,00,000 human neurons in a laboratory, connected them to a Pong game, and watched them learn the video game in five minutes with no body, no senses, and no past. The DishBrain ...

A biocomputer powered by lab-grown human brain cells has leveled up from Pong to Doom. While nowhere ready to handle the video game shooter’s most challenging levels, researchers at Cortical Labs in ...

Researchers at Australian start-up Cortical Labs have taught human neurons grown on a chip to play the classic Doom game. In 2021, they had already used 800,000 neurons to play Pong. Now, with four ...

The cerebral cortex, the brain’s outermost region responsible for higher cognitive functions, depends on a highly ordered, ...
