Millions of human neurons are powering a new data centre in Melbourne – the first in the world to be powered by living brain cells. Launched on Tuesday by local startup Cortical Labs, the prototype ...

Scientists train living human brain cells on a chip to play the video game Doom in a breakthrough biocomputing experiment.

Understanding how a healthy brain works can provide insight into how it fails, too. Scientists hope that studying organoids derived from humans with neurodevelopmental disorders — particularly ...

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 ...

Scientists have demonstrated that human brain cells grown on a microchip can learn to play id Software’s classic first-person ...

DayOne and Cortical Labs are bringing ‘wetware’ computing to the city-state, using living neurons grown from stem cells to support the demand for AI while addressing sustainability concerns ...

In 2021, a dish of living human brain cells figured out how to play the 1970s arcade game Pong. It took just five minutes for the collection of neurons, called DishBrain, to learn how to move the ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Groundbreaking research from Karolinska Institutet reveals that humans can grow new neurons well into old age, offering new hope ...

In ‘body-first’ Parkinson’s disease, misfolded proteins propagate from the gut’s nervous system to the brain. Immune-cell activity seems to play a key part in this spread. The disease is diagnosed ...
