Make and name your own dinosaur species. This dinosaur games lets you change the way your dinosaur looks."

"videos demonstrating SynthNet in action have been posted to YouTube! In the first clip, I demonstrate growing a brain from virtual DNA, hooking into my Lego robotic buddy Bit, and then conditioning Bit to associate hearing a tone with getting his touch sensor pressed. The demonstration is a recreation of classic fear conditioning experiments."

"Neurons-the electrically excitable cells that make up the brain and nervous system-first fascinated me in high school. In college, like so many other students studying the brain, I dutifully memorized the structure of the archetypal neuron. I also remember learning about a few different types of neurons with different shapes and functions: motor neurons that make muscles twitch, for example, and unique sensory neurons in the eyes and nose."

"neurons came in such a beautiful diversity of shapes. Each of these neurons has a different function, too: A. Purkinje cell B. Granule cell C. Motor neuron D. Tripolar neuron E. Pyramidal Cell F. Chandelier cell G. Spindle neuron H. Stellate cell."

"Colors in the photographs are produced by fluorescent dyes used to illuminate microscopic samples. The dyes are not true-color, but neither are the colorations arbitrary: Different dyes bind with different material structures, so that the resulting coloration patterns reflect the composition of samples.
