A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

At high power, laser light inside a multimode optical fiber is supposed to misbehave. The beam usually breaks into a noisy, scattered pattern as the light ricochets through many paths at once.

A cellular-resolution map of prenatal brain development in Down syndrome reveals disrupted neuron production timing and altered cell types.

Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, according to a new ...

The clump of brain cells also learned much faster than silicon-based systems and is expected to improve further with newer learning algorithms.The Man With Two Brains (Prime Video)Yes, its alive, and ...

Seattle, WASH.—October 7, 2025—In a powerful fusion of AI and neuroscience, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and Allen Institute designed an AI model that has created ...

Most neurons that die in Alzheimer’s disease do not simply starve or get smothered by amyloid plaques. According to a study ...

In a powerful fusion of AI and neuroscience, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and at the Allen Institute have created one of the most detailed maps of the mouse brain ...

In about one out of every 1,000 pregnancies, the neural tube, a key nervous system structure, fails to close properly.

UCLA scientists have developed advanced miniature 3D tumor organoid models that make it possible to study glioblastoma tumors in a setting that closely mirrors the human brain, shedding light on how ...
