Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain's wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

Researchers used AI and deep learning to find a link between brain structure and navigation skills but found no measurable ...

Scientists have created a groundbreaking tool that can listen to the electrical signals inside tiny lab-grown human brain models, often called “mini brains.” These structures, known as neural ...

This discovery is important because it suggests a safer way to treat Alzheimer’s disease. Instead of trying to reduce essential brain chemicals, future treatments could focus on enhancing the brain’s ...

Stem cell transplantation can reverse stroke damage, researchers at the University of Zurich report. Its beneficial effects include regeneration of neurons and restoration of motor functions, marking ...

The brain stem is a portion of the brain made of four distinct sections: the diencephalon, mesencephalon, pons, and medulla oblongata. Each of these sections has associated functions which are vital ...

The federal government is looking for researchers who can, in 5 years, develop stem cell treatments to repair brain damage caused by stroke, neurodegeneration, and trauma. The Functional Repair of ...

Scientists from the Machine Intelligence from Cortical Networks (MICRONS) consortium have published the microconnectome of a cubic millimeter of the mouse brain. This is the most complete map of this ...
