In our newly published research in Science Advances, my student Ben Alessio and I propose a potential mechanism explaining how these distinctive patterns form—that could potentially be applied to ...

Scientists are using machine learning to eavesdrop on naked mole rats, fruit bats, crows and whales — and to communicate back. Naked mole rats live in large, underground colonies and have an elaborate ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual category learning task exactly as well as lab animals, but even enabled the ...

More than 70 years ago, mathematician Alan Turing proposed a mechanism that explained how patterns could emerge from bland uniformity. Scientists are still using his model—and adding new twists—to ...

Researchers are using large language models to decode the communication patterns of animals. Google DeepMind is building DolphinGemma, which studies dolphin sounds to understand them. The Earth ...

A new ‘biomimetic’ model of brain circuits and function at multiple scales produced naturalistic dynamics and learning, and ...
