We live in a world where computers can power the entire world wide web, create music and art, and even write college essays. But when it comes to taming biology, we have not been able to take full ...

Have you ever heard of a computer made by connecting living brain cells to electronic devices? Sound like something out of a nightmare or a dystopian sci-fi novel? It's not. This is the subject of a ...

Swiss innovators have recently unveiled a ‘living’ computer or biocomputer that utilizes 16 human mini-brains, also known as organoids to perform computational tasks. This innovative system was ...

A cluster of rat neurons, grown on a chip in a Japanese laboratory, just learned to generate a sine wave on command. Across the Pacific, a team of American engineers wrapped a soft electronic mesh ...

The convergence of tech and biology heralds a transformative shift in computing. Remember that scene in a sci-fi movie where a human connects with a computer? That concept might not be so far-fetched ...
