Researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), and at Harvard Medical School have used mathematical modeling to show how individual cells appear capable of learning, a behavior once deemed ...

Scientists usually study the molecular machinery that controls gene expression from the perspective of a linear, two-dimensional genome—even though DNA and its bound proteins function in three ...

Living human neurons were trained to play Doom, extending the long-running engineering benchmark into biological computing.

A pair of new studies have provided fresh evidence in the long-running scientific debate—and the result could be ...

Up until recently, habituation -- a simple form of learning -- was deemed the exclusive domain of complex organisms with brains and nervous systems, such as worms, insects, birds, and mammals. But a ...

Human brain cells are now interacting with computer systems, learning to play video games like Doom. Researchers have ...

Memories can form outside of the brain, according to new research. Non-brain cells exposed to chemical pulses similar to the ones that brain cells are exposed to when presented with new information ...

Recent advancements in deep learning have transformed the analysis of blood cell images and the classification of leukemia. By employing complex neural network architectures, such as convolutional ...

Machine learning can help improve drug production from cell culture by fine-tuning and quantifying cell culture media experiments. That’s the view of Bei-Wen Ying, PhD, a researcher from the ...

A sense of time is fundamental to how we understand, recall, and interact with the world. Tasks ranging from holding a conversation to driving a car require us to remember and perceive how long things ...
