Summary: A new theoretical framework argues that the long-standing split between computational functionalism and biological naturalism misses how real brains actually compute. The authors propose ...

In conventional computing, we can draw a clean line between software and hardware. In brains, there is no such separation of different scales. In the brain, everything influences everything else, from ...

A TikTok theory connecting Stranger Things to The Wizard of Oz has sparked a flurry of speculation and commentary among viewers online, with fans drawing fresh parallels between the two worlds of ...

Courtly Observations is a recurring series by Erwin Chemerinsky that focuses on what the Supreme Court’s decisions will mean for the law, for lawyers and lower courts, and for people’s lives. Please ...

Abstract: The problem of substructure characteristic modes is developed using a scattering matrix-based formulation, generalizing subregion characteristic mode decomposition to arbitrary computational ...

110 years ago today, Albert Einstein published his General Theory of Relativity, which redefined the relationship between matter and gravity. Suddenly, our mysterious universe made a little more sense ...

The ball rolls across the floor because it was kicked, just as Earth orbits the sun because it is tugged by gravity. The connection between cause and effect is fundamental to how we understand the ...
