A new study suggests that the brain processes information with high efficiency by synchronizing the physical wiring of neural ...

For the first time, scientists have grown functional, brain-like tissue without using any animal-derived materials or added biological coatings. The development opens the door to more controlled and ...

Learn more about the new study, which highlights the importance of analyzing brain structure and connectivity simultaneously.

Healthy aging induces parallel changes in brain functional activity and structural morphology, yet the interplay between ...

Scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine have developed a new algorithm, the Krakencoder, that merges multiple types of brain imaging data to better understand how the brain s wiring underpins behavior, ...

Since its discovery, Alzheimer's disease has been considered irreversible. Consequently, research has focused on preventing or slowing the disease, rather than reversing it.  Using different mouse ...

In mouse models, treatment repaired brain pathology, restored cognitive function, and normalised Alzheimer's biomarkers. The ...

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 ...
