A biocomputer powered by lab-grown human brain cells has leveled up from Pong to Doom. While nowhere ready to handle the video game shooter’s most challenging levels, researchers at Cortical Labs in ...

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

A cluster of lab-grown human brain cells has apparently made the leap to successfully playing a very rudimentary video game ...

"If the neurons fire in a specific pattern, the Doom guy shoots." The post Researchers Get Human Brain Cells Running Doom ...

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

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 ...

Researchers at a Melbourne start-up have taught their “biological computer” made from living human brain cells to play Doom.

A groundbreaking clinical trial is testing whether specially engineered stem cells can help the brain restore its own dopamine production in people with Parkinson’s disease. Because the condition is ...

A new study by researchers at Wake Forest University School of Medicine has identified a promising strategy to treat brain ...

The congenital condition spina bifida is often treated surgically in the womb, but many children still go on to have mobility issues. The addition of a patch made up of stem cells from donated placent ...

A new study has uncovered why some brain cells are more resistant to Alzheimer’s damage than others. Researchers found a natural cleanup system that helps remove toxic tau protein before it can form ...
