The experimental model won't compete with the biggest and best, but it could tell us why they behave in weird ways—and how trustworthy they really are.

Rice University bioengineers have demonstrated a nonsurgical way to quiet a seizure-relevant brain circuit in an animal model. The team used low-intensity focused ultrasound to briefly open the ...

Cheng Lyu is the winner of the 2025 Eppendorf & Science Prize for Neurobiology for her work in understanding how neural circuits assemble with such ...

The Cairo Film Connection has selected 15 projects for its competition, including an intensive program of pitching sessions.

At 22, Brendan Foody and his high-school debate team friends turned a hackathon side project into one of the fastest-scaling ...

Researchers showed that large language models use a small, specialized subset of parameters to perform Theory-of-Mind reasoning, despite activating their full network for every task.

A tiny neural network is sufficient to control the daily rhythm of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. Researchers at the University of Würzburg ...

Technology never really disappears. It just finds new roles. Devices that once powered daily life are making a quiet comeback ...

A functional clock in only two dorsal clock neurons is sufficient to restore the basal circadian activity pattern of Drosophila melanogaster. Nils Reinhard, Enrico Bertolini, Takuya Kuwahara, Manabu ...

In a metal like copper, however, the outer electrons swim around freely and are shared by all the atoms. That’s why ...
