In 2024, researchers completed the first-ever map of the circuitry of a fruit fly’s brain. Despite its diminutive size, the organ packs almost 500 feet of wiring and 54.5 million synapses into the ...

Researchers have created one of the most detailed virtual mouse cortex simulations ever achieved by combining massive biological datasets with the extraordinary power of Japan’s Fugaku supercomputer.

What would it mean to simulate a human brain? Today’s most powerful computing systems now contain enough computational firepower to run simulations of billions of neurons, comparable to the ...

Biophysically detailed simulation of the whole mouse cortex neuron by neuron, with sub-cellular resolution—that is, capturing ion flows and fluctuations of membrane voltage within many compartments ...

Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development of computational models inspired by the brain's layered organization, also ...

Predicting how molecular changes affect the brain’s overall activity is a major challenge in neuroscience. Many deep questions about the brain can only be understood by looking at several layers of ...

Over the past decades, computer scientists have developed numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can process human speech in different languages. The extent to which these models replicate ...
