A biologically grounded computational model built to mimic real neural circuits, not trained on animal data, learned a visual categorization task just as actual lab animals do, matching their accuracy ...

New research shows gut bacteria can directly influence how the brain develops and functions. When scientists transferred ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual ...

It is now understood that the hippocampus is closely linked to learning and memory (Doidge, 2015; Suzuki, 2015). However, this was not always the case. One prominent experiment investigating memory, ...
