Mike Libby uses the carapaces of real insects to create tiny, mechanical works of art. They look like they could be part of a new insect-driven A.I. Not only does Libby’s work adorn a new anthology of ...

Scientists have built a working simulation of an entire adult fruit fly brain and connected it to a physics-based virtual ...

Scientists in the US have uploaded a fruit fly to a computer simulation, while an Australian lab has taught neurons on a glass chip to play a 90s video game. How long before we are all living in a sci ...

In an age of increasingly advanced robotics, one team has well and truly bucked the trend, instead finding inspiration within the pinhead-sized brain of a tiny flying insect in order to build a robot ...

Researchers have completed the most advanced brain map to date—that of an insect—an achievement that brings scientists closer to a true understanding of the mechanism of thought. The team led by Johns ...

Researchers at Michigan State University created an insect brain-based gas sensing platform to detect lung cancer cell lines. With more development, the technology could be used to detect cancer and ...

Early demo hints at a future sci-fi writers warned us about San Francisco startup Eon Systems claims that it has created the ...

Researchers have proposed a new model for the evolution of higher brain functions and behaviors in the Hymenoptera order of insects. The team compared the Kenyon cells, a type of neuronal cell, in the ...
