Cortical Labs has connected 200,000 human neurons to play Doom using electrical stimulation and software controls, allowing the cells to navigate and shoot. The experiment adds to a list of unusual ...

Living human neurons were trained to play Doom, extending the long-running engineering benchmark into biological computing.

Researchers have demonstrated that human brain cells can play DOOM, showcasing a major breakthrough in the advancements of wetware technology.

Researchers at Australian start-up Cortical Labs have taught human neurons grown on a chip to play the classic Doom game. In 2021, they had already used 800,000 neurons to play Pong. Now, with four ...

Using the age-old medium of Doom, boffins just gave us a look into our cyborg future by making the game run on wetware ...

In a wild experiment, it turns out a few human neurons linked up to some custom silicon can actually play Doom.

A couple of years ago, a company called Cortical Labs released a video that showed a simplified version of Pong being played by a culture of human neurons in a Petri dish. The idea that a bunch of ...

This bioengineering breakthrough has found a way to make neurons grown in a dish react just like the real thing. "Neurons that fire together, wire together" describes the neural plasticity seen in ...

Understanding the connection between behavior and brain cell activity is a major goal of neuroscience. To make progress, ...

Neurons are not known for their regenerative powers. Some neurons are very slow to repair after injury, and some are never able to heal damage. This can lead to a devastating loss of function and ...

"Neurons that fire together, wire together" describes the neural plasticity seen in human brains, but neurons grown in a dish don't seem to follow these rules. Neurons that are cultured in-vitro form ...
