Within the brain, individual neurons are drastically variable and unreliable. Yet, when these same neurons act together in a network, they enable robust brain function and precise behavioral outcomes. How is this possible? The answer to this question may help to improve prosthetics for people with parapalegia and make possible reconfigurable neuromorphic devices.
