Using the age-old medium of Doom, boffins just gave us a look into our cyborg future by making the game run on wetware ...

Scientists have demonstrated that human brain cells grown on a microchip can learn to play id Software’s classic first-person ...

In a wild experiment, it turns out a few human neurons linked up to some custom silicon can actually play Doom.

In 2022, Cortical Labs demonstrated a culture of lab-grown human brain cells playing Pong. Now the company claims it has trained its CL-1 chip, composed of 200,000 neurons, to play Doom. Data from the ...

A couple of years ago, a company called Cortical Labs released a video that showed a simplified version of Pong being played by a culture of human neurons in a Petri dish. The idea that a bunch of ...

This bioengineering breakthrough has found a way to make neurons grown in a dish react just like the real thing. "Neurons that fire together, wire together" describes the neural plasticity seen in ...

A neuron made in the lab now works almost like one in the body. A team of engineers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has announced the creation of an artificial neuron with electrical ...

Understanding the connection between behavior and brain cell activity is a major goal of neuroscience. To make progress, ...

Neurons are not known for their regenerative powers. Some neurons are very slow to repair after injury, and some are never able to heal damage. This can lead to a devastating loss of function and ...

"Neurons that fire together, wire together" describes the neural plasticity seen in human brains, but neurons grown in a dish don't seem to follow these rules. Neurons that are cultured in-vitro form ...
