Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Scientists showed that it’s possible to reproduce an entire cerebral cortex inside one of the world’s fastest computers. The model represents the ...

Both for research and medical purposes, researchers have spent decades pushing the limits of microscopy to produce ever deeper and sharper images of brain activity, not only in the cortex but also in ...

In a revealing Genomic Press Interview published today in Genomic Psychiatry , Dr. Maria Margarita Behrens recounts an extraordinary scientific journey that wound through four countries and multiple ...

Duke-NUS scientists unveiled BrainSTEM, a revolutionary single-cell map that captures the full cellular diversity of the developing human brain. The project’s focus on dopamine neurons provides ...

Some parts of our bodies bounce back from injury in fairly short order. The outer protective layer of the eye—called the cornea—can heal from minor scratches within a single day. The brain is not one ...

Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and their collaborators have created one of the most comprehensive single cell maps of the developing human brain. The atlas captures nearly every cell type, ...

Researchers at Duke-NUS Medical School have developed a detailed single-cell atlas of the developing human brain, offering a new reference point for evaluating lab-grown neurons used in Parkinson’s ...

A new study led by researchers at UTHealth Houston investigated both gene expression and regulation at single cell levels to reveal disruptions in gene function in three brain regions of patients with ...

Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and their collaborators have created one of the most comprehensive single cell maps of the developing human brain. The atlas captures nearly every cell type, ...

Researchers have crossed a threshold that once belonged squarely to science fiction: they have built working models of brains, both in silicon and in living tissue, that can learn, adapt, and even ...
