Making Brain Waves: AI Startup Speeds Disease Research With Lab in the Loop

NVIDIA AI Blog

BrainStorm Therapeutics , a San Diego-based startup, is accelerating the development of cures for these conditions using AI-powered computational drug discovery paired with lab experiments using organoids: tiny, 3D bundles of brain cells created from patient-derived stem cells.

Scientists modified the eyes of 5 humans to see an ‘unprecedented’ new color

Fast Company Tech

The brain must adapt to process this extra input, and most screens cant display these additional hues. First, they mapped individual cones in participants retinas using high-resolution scans, labeling each as red, green, or blue. But Ozs precision isolated the green cones, sending the brain a code it had never decoded before.

How to Use Psycholinguistics to Communicate Effectively

Forum One

It combines methods and theories of psychology and linguistics to derive a fuller understanding of how the brain processes language. The advent of neuroimaging has made it possible to examine brain activity—what areas of the brain and neurons are firing—when a person is processing language.

BrainQ raises $40M to transform stroke patient rehabilitation with its home therapy device

TechCrunch

But problems within the brain are more difficult to treat, and for stroke victims rehabilitation is largely left to the body’s own repair mechanisms. But medical science has no method for directly rebuilding those networks — the brain must do so on its own, in its own time. If you lose a leg, prostheses are available.

Google Research, 2022 & beyond: Natural sciences

Google Research AI blog

Using machine learning to unlock mysteries in biology Many of our researchers are fascinated by the extraordinary complexity of biology, from the mysteries of the brain, to the potential of proteins, and to the genome, which encodes the very language of life. We are inspired by the great potential of this work.
