A new bioengineered neuronal circuit board "BioConNet" allows scientists to artificially engineer human brain-like wiring at scale and can be used to engineer any possible circuit. The fully ...

A team of neuroscientists at the Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown, in Lisbon, has been able to map single neural connections over long distances in the brain. "These are the first measurements of ...

New neuroscience research reveals how our brains evolve through key life stages, highlighting the hidden strengths of aging. From childhood's rapid learning to the wisdom of older age, each phase ...

If you think one of the recommendations will be to use brain-training apps, think again ...

Examining brain plasticity and its implications for development, aging, and brain injury recovery.

Could the initiation of a simple walking exercise program help older adults to reverse declines in key brain regions? A new study led by University of Maryland School of Public Health researchers adds ...

According to the Parkinson’s Foundation, an estimated 10 million people around the world live with Parkinson’s disease — a neurological condition that affects a person’s ability to move. Parkinson’s ...

After injury, the visual system can recover by growing new neural connections rather than replacing lost cells. Researchers found that surviving eye cells formed extra branches that restored ...

Our brain is a complex organ. Billions of nerve cells are wired in an intricate network, constantly processing signals, enabling us to recall memories or to move our bodies. Making sense of this ...
