Imagine your brain as a complex network that processes information in different levels of abstraction, just like a visual stream that starts with edge filters and transforms into object representations. This process is also observed in artificial neural networks (ANNs) trained for object recognition. However, traditional training algorithms like backpropagation are not biologically plausible. To […]
Imagine your brain as a complex network of highways, constantly buzzing with activity. Scientists are delving into the world of electrical stimulation therapy to understand how different patterns of stimulation can impact the brain’s functioning. In this article, we delve into the concept of temporal patterns and how they play a central role in shaping […]
Just like a single pebble can create rippling waves across a calm lake, Alzheimer’s disease sets off a chain reaction that impacts the entire body. This complex condition doesn’t just affect memory and cognition, but also triggers a cascade of systemic implications. Much like the interconnected roots in an underground network of trees, Alzheimer’s reaches […]
