Imagine trying to untangle a massive, intricate knot. You know that the knot consists of multiple strands woven together, but understanding how they all fit together is a daunting task. That’s similar to the challenge scientists face with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and its associated pathologies. AD is like the knot, with its hallmark features of […]
Imagine if your brain could not only process information, but also perform complex tasks like a supercomputer. That’s the promise of physical neuromorphic computing, a cutting-edge technology inspired by the brain’s neural networks. Scientists are harnessing the power of physics to develop computer architectures that mimic the brain’s structure and function. These systems can process […]
Just as the type of groceries we buy impacts how we categorize them in our pantry, the way our brain organizes information is influenced by both the frequency and value of the categories. Recent studies have shown that our memory is not only impacted by what we encounter frequently, but also by what we consider […]
