The neural circuitry of Aplysia has long served as a model for understanding the fundamental principles of motor control and behavioural plasticity. Research in this field has revealed that even ...

From writing and typing to playing a musical instrument or mastering a sport, learning movement-based tasks is one of the brain’s most complex challenges. This collaborative new study reveals how the ...

For nearly a century, scientists have recognized that different regions of the brain’s cortex are responsible for controlling various body movements. This understanding dates back to the 1930s, when ...

For every motor skill you've ever learned, whether it's walking or watchmaking, there is a small ensemble of neurons in your brain that makes that movement happen. Our brains trigger these ...

Robotic controls started with simplistic direct-current motors. Engineers had limited mobility because they had few feedback mechanisms. Now, neuromorphic chips are entering the field, mimicking the ...

Broadcom is shipping a novel on-chip, neural-network inference engine called NetGNT (Networking General-purpose Neural-network Traffic-analyzer) in its new, software-programmable Trident 5-X12 chip.
