Could your brain be communicating without synapses? New research uncovers how ephaptic coupling could be driving brain activity during sleep and beyond.

Massive genetic study reveals new Alzheimer’s risk genes, linking immune system dysfunction to brain degeneration—offering hope for earlier detection, better treatments, and deeper understanding of disease mechanisms.

Researchers used artificial intelligence to reconstruct more than 166,000 neurons and 125 million connections, opening a new way to study sex differences and behavior.

MIT researchers place an ultrathin layer of PDMS between metal plates so voltage-driven motion stores a short history of inputs and then fires like a biological cell.

Collective changes in tiny magnetic textures produce stable artificial synapses at room temperature and could cut the energy used by neural-network operations.
