Deep neural networks, a subset of the wider machine learning family, are becoming more effective in real-world applications such as automated face recognition and self-driving cars.

Ulises Ricoy tells us about the importance of mentoring and how he uses resourceful techniques to make neuroscience accessible.

Deep Neural Networks – part of the broader family of machine learning – have become increasingly powerful in everyday real-world applications such as automated face recognition systems and self-driving cars. Researchers use Deep Neural Networks, or DNNs, to model the processing of information, and to investigate how this information processing matches that of humans. While…

BRYN MAWR, PA. (PRWEB) October 09, 2022 -- Dr. Jason D. Bloom is an award-winning, Ivy-League trained, double board-certified facial plastic & reconstructive

A new study finds a direct link between two problems that emerge in Alzheimer’s disease: a buildup of double-stranded breaks (DSBs) in the DNA of neurons and the inflammatory behavior of microglia, the brain’s immune cells.

Payton Dupuis is an undergraduate at Montana State University who spent the summer at MIT through the Summer Research Program in Biology. Dupuis worked with Troy Littleton in the Department of Biology and at The Picower Institute researching a protein that affects the release of neurotransmitters.

MIT PhD student Fernanda De La Torre overcame financial and personal hardship to discover a love of brain and computer sciences. She uses advanced computer algorithms and artificial neural networks to understand sensory perception and how the brain distinguishes reality and imagination.

Mitch Murdock, a doctoral student in the MIT Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, explores the cellular and molecular basis of Alzheimer’s to understand the causes and progression of the disease through new technology and fundamental biological techniques.
