Nanowire networks can exhibit both short- and long-term memory like the human brain

Posted by in categories: nanotechnology, neuroscience

An international team led by scientists at the University of Sydney has demonstrated nanowire networks can exhibit both short-and long-term memory like the human brain.

The research has been published today in the journal Science Advances (“Neuromorphic learning, working memory, and metaplasticity in nanowire networks”), led by Dr Alon Loeffler, who received his PhD in the School of Physics, with collaborators in Japan.
