New research shows how CCN1, a protein secreted by astrocytes, is critical for stabilizing neural circuits in adulthood.

MIT researchers developed a new fabrication method that could enable them to stack multiple active components, like transistors and memory units, on top of an existing circuit, which would improve the ...

This correspondence between brain state and brain responsiveness (statedependent responses) is outlined at different scales from the cellular and circuit level, to the mesoscale and macroscale level.

A missing brain molecule may be disrupting neural wiring in Down syndrome, according to new research. Replacing it in adult ...

A blast from the Elektor archives: this 1998 battery tester uses a simple LED display to reveal a battery’s true condition under load — even below 1 V.

I’ve always been interested in the tradeoffs that designers make when defining topologies and selecting components for a ...

Both superconducting and silicon spin qubits–two of the most popular quantum computing technologies–require extremely low ...

Salk scientists discovered the protein CCN1—secreted by non-neuronal brain cells called astrocytes—stabilizes brain circuits ...

In work that melds the natural with the technological, he foregrounds entanglements shaped by looping currents of life, ...

H-bridge buck-boost ICs are widely used in applications requiring a constant voltage or current source even when the system ...

Researchers have combined liquid metal and a heat-activated adhesive to create an electrically conductive patch that bonds to fabric when heated with a hot iron.

Electronics that can't be easily dismantled for recycling aren't very eco-friendly, nor are petroleum-based adhesives.
