In a lab rack that looks more like a high-end audio system than a server, clusters of human brain cells are quietly learning ...

Scientists are building experimental computers from living human brain cells and testing how they learn and adapt.

In a groundbreaking achievement, scientists have developed the world’s pioneer “living computer” made entirely of cells. This revolutionary invention has the potential to reshape what we perceive as ...

The technology is still in its infancy. But its trajectory suggests that ethical conversations may become pressing far sooner than expected. These “biocomputers” are still in their early days. They ...

The blending of biological and artificial “computing” is a topic that stretches back to the 1940s and 50s. Now, Cortical Labs has successfully developed a brain-on-a-chip computer primarily designed ...

On a warm Melbourne day late last year, hundreds of thousands of live human brain cells sat inside a box on a table in Brunswick. While the neurons were too small to see with the naked eye, Brett ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Journalist, analyst, author, podcaster. The world’s first “code-deployable” biological computer is now for sale. The Cortical Labs ...

An Australian startup has unveiled the world’s first commercial biological computer that runs on living human brain cells. Melbourne-based Cortical Labs launched the CL1 at Mobile World Congress in ...

The potential for these kinds of machines to reshape computer processing, increase energy efficiency, and revolutionize medical testing has scientists excited. But when do we consider these cells to ...

MIT researchers say they've developed microscopic "circulatronics" technology that could one day provide noninvasive brain ...
