A neuroscientist survey shows that 40 percent think it might be possible to preserve a human brain, potentially well enough ...

A landmark international study that pooled brain scans and memory tests from thousands of adults has shed new light on how ...

Programmable 2D nanochannels mimic both synaptic behaviour and multiple memory types, marking a major advance in neuromorphic computing. (Nanowerk News) Researchers at The University of Manchester’s ...

The human brain contains about 86 billion neurons. These cells fire electrical signals that help the brain store memories and send information and commands throughout the brain and the nervous system.

Tiny molecules that can think, remember, and learn may be the missing link between electronics and the brain. For more than half a century, researchers have looked for ways to move past silicon by ...

A new machine learning model shows that star-shaped brain cells may be responsible for the brain's memory capacity, and someday, it could inspire advances in AI and Alzheimer's research. When you ...

A new study offers hope for brain cancer patients facing memory loss from radiotherapy. By blocking a single immune receptor, scientists preserved cognition in mice without dulling the cancer-killing ...

Humans have the remarkable ability to remember the same person or object in completely different situations. We can easily ...

There’s a lot to love about brains. They are arguably the most complex organ in the entire human body. 86 billion neurons send electrical and chemical signals back and forth within your brain to ...

You can use up all the storage on your phone or max out your computer's drive, but can you use up all the memory space in your brain? Despite how you might feel before an exam or after a sleepless ...
