Scientists Build One of the Most Detailed Digital Simulations of the Mouse Cortex Using Japan’s Fugaku Supercomputer
Researchers from the Allen Institute and Japan’s University of Electro-Communications have built one of the most detailed mouse cortex simulations ever created. Using Japan’s Fugaku supercomputer, the team modeled around 10 million neurons and 26 billion synapses, recreating realistic structure and activity. The virtual cortex offers a new plat...

69-Year-Old Man with Paralysis Flies Virtual Drone Using Brain Implant
A 69-year-old man, paralysed in all four limbs, has piloted a virtual drone using a brain-computer interface (BCI). By imagining movements of his fingers, the man controlled a drone through a complex virtual obstacle course. This development marks a significant step in improving BCI technology, potentially enabling paralysed individuals to perform ...

Mice VR Headsets Revolutionise Brain Activity Studies and Behavioural Research
Mice are now being equipped with specially designed virtual reality headsets, allowing researchers to study brain activity in immersive environments. Developed using affordable components, the "MouseGoggles" enable scientists to observe the mice's neural responses as they interact with virtual environments. The study opens new doors for understandi...

Self-Navigating AI Learns to Take Shortcuts: Study
Navigation is considered a complex behavioural task, and in animals is partly controlled by a sort of onboard GPS driven by "grid cells" in the brain's hippocampus region.

How Primates Developed Large Brains Decoded
Scientists have reconstructed virtual brains from ancient, kiwi-sized primate skulls that could help solve one of the most intriguing evolutionary mysteries: how modern primates developed large brains.

Deadly Meningitis Strain Virtually Eliminated in Much of Africa: Study
A new vaccine has virtually eliminated meningitis A in 16 African countries, but children will remain vulnerable to the disease which can kill or cause severe brain damage, unless governments routinely immunise them, experts said yoday.
