Scientists have achieved a significant step towards creating artificial brain cells by developing an "iontronic memristor" which mimics a synapse, the connection point between neurons. An international team from Utrecht University (Netherlands) and Sogang University (South Korea) has created artificial neurological junctions, replicating synapses using a simple water and salt solution. This development is seen as a significant breakthrough, opening doors to the creation of advanced computers that rival the human brain's processing power. The project, led by Tim Kamsma of Utrecht University, ha...
