When the lights went out across the Iberian Peninsula in April, everything ground to a halt. Scores of people were trapped in Madrid’s underground metro system. Hospitals in Lisbon had to switch to emergency generators. Internet service as far away as Greenland and Morocco went down. While the cause remains unclear, the actual damage to the Iberian power grid—and the people it serves—was relatively minor. Less than 24 hours after the outage began, the region’s electricity operators managed to g

In a development straight out of science fiction, Australian startup Cortical Labs has released what it calls the world’s first code-deployable biological computer. The CL1, which debuted in March, fuses human brain cells on a silicon chip to process information via sub-millisecond electrical feedback loops. Designed as a tool for neuroscience and biotech research, the CL1 offers a new way to study how brain cells process and react to stimuli. Unlike conventional silicon-based systems, the hybr

"Neurogenesis," or the formation of new neurons, is known to take place before birth. But some evidence suggests that it can continue throughout the human lifespan. The developing human brain gains billions of neurons while in the womb, and tacks on some more during childhood. For most of the 20th century, the conventional wisdom was that the brain cells grown before adulthood would be the only ones we would have for the rest of our lives. But over the past few decades, more and more research i

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of caffeine ingestion on the brain during sleep. In particular, we compared the effects of caffeine to that of placebo on neural oscillations, brain complexity and measures of critical behavior. Importantly, we set out to characterize these effects across REM and NREM sleep, and across age. In a nutshell, we found that caffeine induces a broad boost in brain complexity and a prominent shift towards criticality. These effects were substant
