Neuron-powered computer chips can now be easily programmed to play a first-person shooter game, bringing biological computers a step closer to useful applications ...

The CL1 is the first commercial system from the same researchers who wowed the tech world in 2022 by teaching a cluster of ...

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

Researchers are no longer just simulating brains in silicon, they are wiring living human neurons into machines and asking them to compute. Tiny clusters of brain cells, grown from stem cells and ...

The technology is still in its infancy. But its trajectory suggests that ethical conversations may become pressing far sooner than expected. These “biocomputers” are still in their early days. They ...

Scientists are experimenting with ways to integrate brain cells into computer processors. The technology could help conserve energy. FinalSpark's Multi-Electrode Arrays (MEAs) incorporate four human ...

Understanding how a healthy brain works can provide insight into how it fails, too. Scientists hope that studying organoids derived from humans with neurodevelopmental disorders — particularly ...
