Brain Renin–Angiotensin System

The emotive brain, the noradrenergic system, and cognition

Motivation and attention can have a profound influence on perception, learning and memory. Neuromodulatory systems, especially the noradrenergic (NE) system, co-vary with psychological states to modulate cortical arousal, influence sensory processing and promote synaptic plasticity. There is even some suggestion that the NE system might facilitate functional recovery after brain damage. Post-sy...

Towards Brain-Inspired System Architectures

Brain-inspired computing structures, technologies, andmethods offer innovative approaches to the future of computing. From the lowest level of neuron devices to the highest abstraction of consciousness, the brain drives new ideas (literally and conceptually) in computer design and operation. This paper interrelates three levels of brain inspired abstractions including intelligence, abstract gra...
