New cell-scale robots can sense their environment, compute decisions, and move independently without magnetic or ultrasonic ...
If you have ever lifted a weight, you know the routine: challenge the muscle, give it rest, feed it and repeat. Over time, it ...
The orientation of a line at a given position in visual space is represented by a small volume of primary visual cortex, known as an orientation column. Although cells within such a column share some ...
A study in mice suggests infantile amnesia is not a failure of memory, but a developmentally useful process guided by brain ...
Deep inside the brain, every thought and memory begins with a burst of electrical activity. For years, scientists have tried ...
For a long time, neuroscientists treated this forgetting as a cognitive glitch or a simple lack of brainware maturity. But a ...
As lithium costs soar and safety incidents mount, aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZMBs) promise a cheap, non-flammable alternative—yet zinc anodes still ...
Cells have a remarkable housekeeping system: Proteins that are no longer needed, defective, or potentially harmful are labeled with a molecular "tag" and dismantled in the cellular recycling machinery ...
The human brain is often compared to a computer, but the latest wave of research shows it is closer to a self-building city, complete with blueprints, zoning rules, and emergent neighborhoods that ...
If you have ever lifted a weight, you know the routine: challenge the muscle, give it rest, feed it and repeat. Over time, it grows stronger.Author ...
