Is consciousness something the brain produces, or is it woven into the fabric of reality itself? Renowned neuroscientist Christof Koch is challenging long-held scientific assumptions by confronting ...

From outer space to the human brain, Tufts University’s research labs explore various fields of science to uncover new ...

Scientists at Auburn University have uncovered a fundamental principle of how brain cells stay connected, and their discovery could change how we understand Alzheimer's disease. Published in Cell ...

Physics has a reputation as a tough upper-level science course, even at the high school level. It's therefore somewhat ironic that every human on Earth performs thousands of physics calculations on a ...

A recent study published in Physical Review Letters reveals that many widely used signatures of criticality in brain data may be statistical artifacts. They propose a more robust framework that, when ...

What drives groundbreaking women in science to push beyond boundaries? In this episode of Life of Her Mind, Mia Wood sits down with Dr. Shella Keilholz, Principal Investigator in The Keilholz Mind Lab ...

A new type of computer chip that uses the physics of materials to process information could make some artificial intelligence ...

A milestone in biology has been achieved thanks to artificial intelligence (AI) machine learning and applied physics. A new peer-reviewed study by researchers affiliated with Harvard John A. Paulson ...

Risk assessment Researchers from Caltech and the Keck School of Medicine at USC have created a portable laser-based headset that can estimate stroke risk. Caltech postdoctoral scholar Simon Mahler is ...

A machine learning model used neural decoding to show how we think about abstract concepts like electrical current and diffraction. The results could change how we teach physics. Share on Facebook ...

A Swedish physicist has proposed a provocative new theory that places consciousness at the very foundation of the universe — a claim that, if correct, could radically reshape scientific thinking on ...
