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

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

A group of specialized cells play a crucial part in clearing toxic proteins from inside the brain 1. But in people with Alzheimer’s disease, these cells malfunction, leading to the build up of tau ...

Scientists used a compact AI model to predict how visual cortex neurons respond to images, revealing hidden patterns in ...

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 ...

Your brain begins as a single cell. When all is said and done, it will house an incredibly complex and powerful network of some 170 billion cells. How does it organize itself along the way? Cold ...

Neuroscientists propose a new theory of brain development where cells organize based on lineage rather than long-range signals.

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory postdoc Stan Kerstjens and colleagues have devised a new theory for how the brain organizes ...

Scientists at MIMETAS have published a new study describing a scalable, self-assembling human blood-brain barrier (BBB) model that combines physiological relevance with high-throughput capability. The ...

A new study suggests AI systems could be a lot more efficient. Researchers were able to shrink an AI vision model to 1/1000th ...

A new study reveals that astrocytes, once dismissed as mere support cells, play a central role in fear memory.
