Researchers at Monash University in Australia have developed a microfluidic chip that operates in a manner similar to neural pathways in the brain, potentially opening up new avenues for the development of next-generation computers. The coin-sized chip, made from a special metal-organic framework (MOF) material, transmits ions through tiny channels, mimicking the switching function of electronic transistors in computers. Unlike traditional computer chips, it can also 'remember' previous signals, emulating the plasticity of neurons in the brain.
