Researchers challenge the "efficiency" theory of the brain, showing that neurons become more coordinated and share more information as learning occurs.

A dish of living human neurons has been taught to play Doom. No, it isn’t conscious or watching the screen the way players do. But it is learning to respond to signals in a way that produces ...

Living human neurons were trained to play Doom, extending the long-running engineering benchmark into biological computing.

Researchers at Australian start-up Cortical Labs have taught human neurons grown on a chip to play the classic Doom game. In 2021, they had already used 800,000 neurons to play Pong. Now, with four ...

When you get better at a skill-recognizing a familiar face in a crowd, spotting a typo at a glance, or anticipating the next move in a game-sensory neurons in your brain become more coordinated, ...

"If the neurons fire in a specific pattern, the Doom guy shoots." The post Researchers Get Human Brain Cells Running Doom ...

Lab-grown mini-brains learned to play video games using electrical signals, improving from 4.5% to 46% success in AI balance tests.

A pair of new studies have provided fresh evidence in the long-running scientific debate—and the result could be ...

Scientists train living human brain cells on a chip to play the video game Doom in a breakthrough biocomputing experiment.

A biocomputer powered by lab-grown human brain cells has leveled up from Pong to Doom. While nowhere ready to handle the video game shooter’s most challenging levels, researchers at Cortical Labs in ...

After training neurons to play Pong, the team is back, and this time the brain cells are slaying demons with super shotguns.

Researchers found three master genes that alter brain development in Down syndrome, offering new clues about learning and memory differences.
