Neuroimaging and computational neuroscience studies reveal different ways and brain areas implicated in decision making. Read More
Study combines developmental neurobiology and computational neuroscience to explore the dynamic changes of gene expression at the single-cell level as progenitor cells differentiate into neurons, then diversify into different sensory neurons. Read More
AI network simulations become unstable following continuous periods of unsupervised learning. When the networks were exposed to states that are analogous to human brain waves during sleep, the stability was restored. Read More
Using computational methods, researchers created artificial proteins that triggered immune responses and produced infection specific antibodies. The findings indicate it will be possible to design vaccines that contain artificial antibodies, expediting the process of vaccine development. Read More
New model reveals the aerosolized particles carrying the coronavirus can remain in the air longer than was previously suggested. Researchers modeled a scenario where an infected person coughs in a supermarket aisle and takes into consideration in-store ventilation systems. The model revealed the aerosol-cloud containing COVID-19 spreads outside the immediate vicinity of the coughing person and dilutes in the process, but the dilution occurs over several minutes.

The lessons learned from developing artificial intelligence networks can help guide researchers down the path of understanding the brain as a computational system rather than a collection of cells. AI technology can help take exploring the human brain, behavior and neurodegenerative diseases to an entirely new level. Read More
A new, freely available computer platform creates a 3D model that brings together the macroscopic scale of tissue with the microscopic scale of individual cells. This allows the platform to realistically model brain cancer's mechanobiology while maintaining resolution power. Read More
