In a lab rack that looks more like a high-end audio system than a server, clusters of human brain cells are quietly learning to process information. Electrodes feed them signals, nutrients keep them ...

Researchers are no longer just simulating brains in silicon, they are wiring living human neurons into machines and asking them to compute. Tiny clusters of brain cells, grown from stem cells and ...

The brain is powerful, and computers are powerful—why not harness their strength combined? Researchers at the University of Illinois (UIUC) have built a “living computer” using mouse brain cells in a ...

The potential for these kinds of machines to reshape computer processing, increase energy efficiency, and revolutionize medical testing has scientists excited. But when do we consider these cells to ...

While silicon-based computing is cutting-edge today, human brain-based tech could be on track to dominate the future. Researchers are exploring how brain organoids—tiny clumps of neurons that resemble ...
