In 2024, Elon Musk's Neuralink implant allowed a quadriplegic patient to play RuneScape and Slay the Spire in his brain. But now, scientists are taking things further, training lab-grown brain cells ...

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 ...

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 ...

In a wild experiment, it turns out a few human neurons linked up to some custom silicon can actually play Doom.

A large, long-term study found that playing a brain training video game may help protect the brain against dementia for decades. Experts say the findings are the strongest evidence yet that cognitive ...

To think, feel, talk and move, neurons send messages through electrical signals in the brain and spinal cord. This intricate communication network is built of billions of neurons connected by synapses ...
