Scientists create lightweight, hairlike electrode for long-term, non-invasive EEG monitoring of brain activity.

Purdue researchers developed a soft material grown inside living tissue by blood that allows precise, reversible neural modulation using near-infrared light.

Traveling electrical waves in the brain coordinate neurons for rapid flexible thinking and produce a unified sense of consciousness by performing many calculations at once.

The same groups of neurons in the prefrontal cortex of mice can store either sensory details or action plans in working memory depending on the needs of the moment.

NUS Medicine, DayOne and Cortical Labs deploy 20 living-neuron CL1 units in a server rack cutting AI compute power to 30W per machine. "This is less power than a handheld-calculator".

The brain stores memories while flexibly reorganizing, updating, and reshaping them with new and relevant information.

The Neuropixels Ultra probe enhances the ability to capture electrical activity from thousands of individual brain cells simultaneously, improving insights into how they form networks that control behavior.

New device targets multiple brain points safely to aid alzheimer's, epilepsy, and tremor studies.

Memory strongly depends on the activity of neurons, but other brain cells called astrocytes also play a crucial role in memory processes.

New high-resolution fMRI dataset from repeated scans of the same volunteers expands resources for studying how individual brains handle diverse mental tasks.
