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

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 ...

Encapsulated microbubbles (EMBs), tiny gas-filled bubbles coated in lipid or protein shells, play a central role in ...

A new ‘biomimetic’ model of brain circuits and function at multiple scales produced naturalistic dynamics and learning, and ...

Computational models and simulations have had an important role in engineering analysis since as far back as the 1960s. It is widely recognized that the use of modeling and simulation tools can make ...

La Jolla scientists are stepping into a national push to get new medicines from lab bench to bedside faster. The project, ...

Mathematicians have developed a new mathematical model which could greatly increase the efficiency of pest control and hence significantly reduce the impact of pests on crops whilst minimizing the ...

Theory and understanding underpin a great deal of experimentation and engineering. Working together experimentalists can be guided by theoretical predictions and theoreticians can refine their models ...

Vaccines are vital for human health, a fact that has been highlighted by the recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. They are regarded as the safest and most cost-effective approach ...

A new computational model suggests that Uranus' and Neptune's cores may be less icy than their "ice giant" nickname suggests.
