Working to curb road deaths

The principle of peak selection is described, by which local interactions and smooth gradients drive self-organization of discrete global modules.

In this Perspective, Barabási, Ferreira Castro and Engert challenge the notion that learning and plasticity primarily drive the assembly of neural circuits. They present a tripartite framework for how...

Ultra-wideband radio frequency identification technology was used to collect spatiotemporal data on movements in four different classroom and playground settings. The data explore predominantly low-sp...

The adult human brain comprises more than a thousand distinct neuronal and glial cell types, a diversity that emerges during early brain development. To reveal the precise sequence of events during ea...

A low-power chip that runs AI models using analog rather than digital computation shows comparable accuracy on speech-recognition tasks but is more than 14 times as energy efficient.
