Wasn't the cosmos born in darkness? Didn't all that light come from the shadows? Look again. So clear. So dazzling. Hiding everything because it is so…

Brain & Artificial neurons. Tears. Smiles.
Brain functions are made possible by circuits of spiking neurons, connected together by microscopic, but highly complex links called synapses. In this new study, published in the scientific journal Nature Scientific Reports, the scientists created a hybrid neural network where biological and artificial neurons in different parts of the world were able to communicate with…

Natural. Unnatural. How natural…
To find out which sights specific neurons in monkeys 'like' best, researchers designed an algorithm, called XDREAM, that generated images that made neurons fire more than any natural images the researchers tested. As the images evolved, they started to look like distorted versions of real-world stimuli. (1) Round and round we go. Trying to understand…

Artificial Snowflakes ?!
Snowflakes images. They look like artificial electronic components. But they are not. They are not? On the other hand human-made snow (see BELOW) looks like… natural blobs of frozen water. (1, 2) But it is not. It is not?

Synthetic vaccines, natural fears...
British scientists develop a new way to create an entirely synthetic vaccine which does not rely on using live infectious virus, meaning it is much safer. [1] Safer for the virus it is supposed to kill, that is... Because if vaccines based on live viruses have problems with success rates, I can only have nightmares on the success…
