Researchers show that brain organoids -- clumps of lab-grown neurons -- can integrate with rat brains and respond to visual stimulation like flashing lights. In a study publishing in the journal Cell ...

To accurately perceive the direction of moving objects, rats could exploit a small but very useful cluster of visual neurons, which seem to work in the same way as the “pattern cells” found in the ...

Sounds can alter the way the brain interprets what it sees. This is the key finding of a new study by SISSA researchers in Trieste, published in PLOS Computational Biology. The research shows that, ...

Scientists have integrated human brain organoids into the brains of rats with injuries to their visual cortices and gotten the cells to respond to stimulation, according to a new study from ...
