A new study from Scripps Research reveals how a key touch-sensing protein detects mechanical forces with remarkable precision. Each time something lightly presses against your skin, specialized sensor ...

Closely related subtypes of dopamine-releasing neurons may play entirely separate roles in processing sensory information, depending on their physical structure. New research from the Institute of ...

Scientists have known for years that a lattice of blood vessels nourishes cells in the retina that allow us to see – but it’s been a mystery how the intricate structure is created. Now, researchers at ...

Steven Weisberg, a researcher at The University of Texas at Arlington, put some of the most advanced artificial intelligence ...

Neurons placed inside engineered living bodies built from frog cells self-organize, become active, and reshape movement without evolutionary guidance.
