Gear-obsessed editors choose every product we review. We may earn commission if you buy from a link. Why Trust Us? AI neural networks require about one million times more power than human brains use.

While such advances bring with them a breadth of knowledge, the immense complexity of the datasets makes it challenging for scientists to analyze them using current computational methods. Now, ...

A new study published in Nature suggests that the neural foundations of spatial navigation—the brain's internal "GPS"—may have emerged far earlier in evolution than previously believed. The research, ...

A study showed that high maternal fructose intake altered neural stem cell gene regulation before birth, leading to reduced ...

Nutritional imbalance during pregnancy can have long-lasting effects on the health status and disease susceptibility of the ...

The tiny chips hitch a ride on immune cells to target inflammation in the brain. Scientists hope to kick off clinical trials within three years. From restoring movement and speech in people with ...
