Scientists Create Brain-Like Neurons That Run On Human Brain Voltage
SMRTR summary
Scientists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have created artificial neurons using protein nanowires from bacteria that operate at the same ultra-low voltages as real brain cells, consuming just picojoules of energy per spike. This breakthrough enables silicon devices to directly interface with living tissue and respond to chemical signals like dopamine, potentially revolutionizing biosensing applications and brain-computer interfaces.
