In the future, the interface between brain and artificial system might be based on nerve cells grown for that purpose. In research that was recently featured on the cover of Nature Physics, Prof. Elisha Moses of the Physics of Complex Systems Department and his former research students Drs. Ofer Feinerman and Assaf Rotem have taken the first step in this direction by creating circuits and logic gates made of live nerves grown in the lab. http://www.physorg.com/news152364147.html Physics Wed, 28 Jan 2009 11:22:49 EST news152364147 Not that he needed one, but Bill Gates had rock star Slash help him cap his performance at the International Consumer Electronics Show last year. http://www.physorg.com/news150463945.html Technology Tue, 06 Jan 2009 11:32:25 EST news150463945 (PhysOrg.com) -- Over the last 60 years, ever-smaller generations of transistors have driven exponential growth in computing power.
