WPI researchers have used a form of artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze anatomical changes in the brain and predict ...

How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...

Researchers challenge the "efficiency" theory of the brain, showing that neurons become more coordinated and share more information as learning occurs.

In cell culture experiments, stem cells from human baby teeth promoted neural cell proliferation. In rat models, the stem ...

Overall, the findings suggest that repairing the brain’s insulation system could play a key role in lasting recovery from trauma. If further studies confirm these results, therapies that support ...

The ventral tegmental area (VTA) is a key brain region for dopamine production and the regulation of reward-related behaviors ...

Researchers engineer CAR-astrocytes to target and remove amyloid plaques in Alzheimer’s, showing a 50% reduction in brain waste with a single injection.

Fat-based vesicles help deliver GM1 to the brain, improving movement and extending survival in mouse models of ALS, a study finds.

Researchers found that psilocybin and MDMA may alleviate PTSD symptoms by promoting myelin remodeling in the brain. In rat models, psychedelic treatment triggered oligodendrocyte-driven myelin repair ...

WPI researchers use machine learning and brain scans to identify age- and sex-specific anatomical patterns that predict ...

New experiments suggest a biological missing link that helps lock in the long-term benefits of psychedelic-assisted PTSD treatment ...

Can the bend of a banana give us insight into cancer? What does the shape of a rice grain have to do with infertility? The ...
