Living human neurons were trained to play Doom, extending the long-running engineering benchmark into biological computing.

Researchers at Australian start-up Cortical Labs have taught human neurons grown on a chip to play the classic Doom game. In 2021, they had already used 800,000 neurons to play Pong. Now, with four ...

Biotech startup Cortical Labs claims to have taught living human brain cells how to play the seminal video game "Doom." ...

Scientists have demonstrated that human brain cells grown on a microchip can learn to play id Software’s classic first-person ...

A team of researchers has produced elastic ear cartilage from human cells in a laboratory setting, which achieved mechanical ...

Ear we go! Scientists 3D print the most true-to-life human ear to date. Researchers in Switzerland have 3D-printed the most ...

Researchers in Switzerland have 3D printed the most true-to-life human ear yet created in a laboratory using patients’ own cartilage cells. For more than three decades, scientists have been trying to ...

Under stress, animal cells pair inactive ribosomes into RNA-linked disomes. A ribosomal RNA “kissing loop” joins them, protecting ribosomes and reducing protein synthesis to conserve energy.<br /> ...

Engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have developed a new class of protein-based fibers modeled on the aligned ...

In laboratory experiments, researchers have produced ear cartilage that remains form-stable in animal models. Only one ...

Neurons have a "hibernation mode." Scientists discover how brain cells use RNA tentacles to lock their protein factories together to survive when energy is low.
