An international team of researchers has found that ketamine, being an NMDA receptor inhibitor, increases the brain's background noise, causing higher entropy of incoming sensory signals and disrupting their transmission between the thalamus and the cortex.
A team of engineers and neuroscientists has demonstrated for the first time that human brain organoids implanted in mice have established functional connectivity to the animals' cortex and responded to external sensory stimuli. The implanted organoids reacted to visual stimuli in the same wa
Scientists from the USC Stem Cell laboratory of Neil Segil have identified a natural barrier to the regeneration of the inner ear's sensory cells, which are lost in hearing and balance disorders. Overcoming this barrier may be a first step in returning inner ear cells to a newborn-like state
Singapore, December 21 (ANI/PRNewswire): For the third consecutive year, Medidata, a Dassault Systemes company, was awarded the International Innovation Award.
Graphene oxide, a nanomaterial utilised in everything from electronics to biomolecule sensors, may have an indirect impact on the immune system through the gut microbiome.
New Delhi [India], December 7 (ANI/NewsVoir): Sony India introduced a new addition to its personal audio category, WF-LS900N. The latest model empowers a new sound experience through Sony's sensing technology and partner collaboration, all while maintaining a "Never Off" wearing experience w
An interdisciplinary research team at the University of Freiburg has found important clues about the functioning of the sensorimotor cortex. The new findings on neuronal activities in this brain area could be helpful for the further development and use of so-called neuroprostheses. These hav
Recently, a research group developed an in-sensor reservoir computing system for latent fingerprint recognition with deep ultraviolet photo-synapses and a memristor array.
Our palms tell us a lot about our emotional state, tending to get wet when people are excited or nervous. This reaction is used to measure emotional stress and help people with mental health issues, but the devices to do it now are bulky, unreliable and can perpetuate social stigma by sticki
