Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Researchers have developed a "laser-powered artificial neuron," which is like a supercharged version of a biological neuron. This ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Computing systems have made impressive progress, but they still fall short when compared to the human brain’s energy efficiency and adaptability. Biological neurons handle complex ...

An artificial neuron that can both release and receive dopamine in connection with real rat cells could be used in future machine-human interfaces. Most brain-machine interfaces measure simple ...

Our bodies’ nerve cells are important for transmitting electrical and chemical information between different parts of the brain and between the brain and other parts of the nervous system. One of the ...

They created a library of the different electrical signatures for each type of neuron, which then allowed them to train an AI algorithm that can automatically recognise five different types of neurons ...
