Cortical Labs out of Melbourne, Australia has created the CL1, the "world’s first code deployable biological computer" that runs on living, lab-grown ...

At present, only small biological computers have been built by researchers to prove the concept. To be competitive with electronic computers in terms of speed and computation, and explore very ...

Let me explain. The CL1 is described as "the world’s first code deployable biological computer" according to the splashy website, incorporating human brain cells in order to send and receive ...

Australian startup Cortical Labs has launched what it's calling the "world’s first code deployable biological computer." The shoe box-sized device, dubbed CL1, is a notable departure from a ...

The CL1 computer is the first in the world that combines human neurons with a silicon chip. It could be used in disease modeling and drug discovery before it expires after six months.
