Biocomputing is one of the most bizarre frontiers in emerging technology, made possible by the fact that our neurons perceive the world and act on it speaking the same language as computers do – electrical signals. Human brain cells, grown in large numbers onto silicon chips, can receive electrical signals from a computer, try to make sense of them, and talk back.Continue ReadingCategory: Robotic

X-rays light up brain tumor cells – then selectively destroy them
Posted by ArielTechGeek 25 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
X-rays are known to penetrate the body’s deep tissues, which is why they’re used to deliver cancer radiotherapy. Whereas radiotherapy uses X-ray beams to damage tumor cells’ DNA, killing them, photodynamic therapy uses a different method to achieve the same result. The photons in laser beams are used to excite light-reactive molecules called photosensitizers that have been placed in tumors, causi

Our brain matter is stuck at a phase transition, says new study
Posted by ArielTechGeek 26 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Based on fractal patterns in neurons, researchers believe our brains exist at or near a state called criticality where they're extremely close to shifting from one state of matter to another. They also admit they don't know what either state is.Continue ReadingCategory: Biology, ScienceTags: Northwestern University, Brain, Neuroscience, Neural Network, Neurological
