Scientists at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center have gotten the evidence that traumatic brain injuries (TBI) could heighten the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. This study had involved both animal models and human brain tissue. It sheds light on how TBIs may trigger harmful protein build-ups in the brain, leading to cognitive issues […]
A 36-year-old man, who was declared brain dead, woke up and began to cry as doctors were preparing to harvest his organs for donation at a hospital in Kentucky, United States. Anthony Thomas “TJ” Hoover II was taken to Baptist Health Richmond Hospital in Richmond on October 25, 2021, after suffering a cardiac arrest due […]
October 21, 2024 3 min read How Your Brain Processes Zero (It’s Not Exactly ‘Nothing’) What we think about when we think about “zilch” is surprisingly complex, neuroscientists find By Michaela Maya-Mrschtik & Daisy Yuhas The invention of zero made many mathematical calculations possible. Many mathematical equations can only be solved thanks to a special […]
Elevate is seen as an educational program for all people in many different fields. This educational application is growing stronger and gaining the trust of users. The application is constantly updated with many new unique features, partly to create trust and partially to conquer the wishes of modern users. Compared to other applications, this application […]
Researchers are cataloguing the effects of birth control on the brain. Credit: Isabel Pavia/Getty Chicago, Illinois Hold the morning coffee and meditation: for about 75 days over the span of a year, neuroscientist Carina Heller’s morning ritual included climbing into her university’s brain scanner at 7:30 a.m. and lying perfectly still for an hour and […]
I got a text message from someone in Mercedes-Benz’s public relations department last week who had a tempting offer — If I’d be willing to drive to Braselton, Georgia, for Petit Le Mans, they would send a car for me to drive and get me in for free. We already had a freelancer attending, which […]
There are worries that GenAI systems may run out of fresh data as they scale. Synthetic data is an option, but using AI-generated data to train AI can degrade the model's performance. There may be a better solution. Can data quality overcome a loss of data quantity? Source link
A new computer simulation of how our brains develop and grow neurons has been built by scientists from the University of Surrey. Along with improving our understanding of how the brain works, researchers hope that the models will contribute to neurodegenerative disease research and, someday, stem cell research that helps regenerate brain tissue. The research […]
CURT NICKISCH: Welcome to the HBR IdeaCast from Harvard Business Review. I’m Curt Nickisch. Generative artificial intelligence is bringing a new focus on efficiency at work. Some organizations see it as a way to replace employees and to squeeze more productivity out of the ones they have, to be more efficient that way. But others […]
Maryam Shanechi, the Sawchuk Chair in Electrical and Computer Engineering and founding director of the USC Center for Neurotechnology, and her team have developed a new AI algorithm that can separate brain patterns related to a particular behavior. This work, which can improve brain-computer interfaces and discover new brain patterns, has been published in the […]
