Computation Leads to Better Understanding of Flu Replication

Monday, June 16, 2014

University of Chicago scientists have published computational results that may give drug designers the insight they need to develop the next generation of effective influenza treatment.

"Lightning talks" is a bit of a misnomer, as each talk lasts many million times longer than a single lightning bolt. That's probably for the best.

Lightning Talks Return

Visualizing the Brain's Hardware

Thursday, January 9, 2014

The brain doesn’t work like a piano, where activating one neuron automatically contracts one muscle somewhere in the body. The vast range of motions possible for a body require control by a complicated neural code, one that can’t possibly be deduced from the activity of a single neuron.
