Columbia-led study offers new insight into organization of brain’s listening center; provides roadmap for development of hearing-aid technologies inspired by the brain
New SCAPE 2.0 system can serve as a critical tool to advance science and medicine.
At the 2019 World Science Festival, experts discussed the role that our five senses — smell, taste, sight, hearing and touch — play in helping us to navigate our surroundings.
An international team of researchers demonstrates that our brain need only perform a few lightning-fast statistical calculations to detect key properties of unknown objects.
Columbia engineers develop new AI technology that amplifies correct speaker from a group; breakthrough could lead to better hearing aids.
Columbia’s Zuckerman Institute hosts gathering of leading neuroscientists from across the country
Advanced imaging technologies observe one brain area’s ability to rapidly sense our surroundings; lays groundwork for improvements to machine learning and robotics.
Columbia team harnesses powerful high-speed, 3D SCAPE microscope to uncover never-before-seen details of the fruit fly nervous system, demonstrating SCAPE’s broad potential to decipher the brain.
Columbia research demonstrates that the brain’s primitive sensory region also participates in sophisticated learning.
On this International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we hope that girls around the world will be inspired by the work of Elizabeth Hillman, PhD, and carve their own paths into science and engineering.
