AI Chip Mimicking Brain’s Reflex Center Developed
Summary: Researchers unveiled a novel, cerebellum-inspired electronic chip. While most neuromorphic computing tries to recreate the thought-heavy cerebrum, this new device emulates the reflex-driven cerebellum, which ignores expected baseline data…
Physical Activity Rewires the Traumatized Brain
Summary: For years, the neurological impact of childhood trauma was often viewed as a permanent “scar” on the brain. However, new research challenges this deterministic view. The study demonstrates that…
Fitness Shapes Teen Brains – Neuroscience News
Summary: A novel study finds a link between childhood physical fitness and cerebellar grey matter volume in adolescents. The research, part of the FitBrain study, shows that adolescents with better…
