Think learning and memory are all the job of the brain? You might want to think again, if the results of a recent study are to be believed. In a first, scientists at New York University (NYU) ...

Memories can form outside of the brain, according to new research. Non-brain cells exposed to chemical pulses similar to the ones that brain cells are exposed to when presented with new information ...

Single-cell analyses have emerged as powerful tools for studying cellular heterogeneity and gene regulation. Single-cell chromatin accessibility sequencing (scCAS) is a key technology that enables the ...

Machine learning can help improve drug production from cell culture by fine-tuning and quantifying cell culture media experiments. That’s the view of Bei-Wen Ying, PhD, a researcher from the ...

During early development, tissues and organs begin to form through the shifting, splitting, and growing of many thousands of cells. A team of researchers headed by MIT engineers has now developed a ...

The human brain is known to store various memories for long periods of time, progressively learning from new experiences and forming adaptive representations that ultimately guide decision-making and ...

Researchers have applied object recognition technology to track changes in brain cell structure and provide new insights into how the brain responds to heroin use, withdrawal and relapse. Object ...

New model extracts stiffness and fluidity from AFM data in minutes, enabling fast, accurate mechanical characterization of living cells at single-cell resolution. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Cells are not ...
