Studies of brain injuries and electrical stimulation seemed to bear this out. Damaging the Broca’s area, for instance, ...

Can the brain keep working when its architecture changes? Researchers at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) have discovered ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in ...

For more than a century, maps of the brain have been based on how brain tissue looks under the microscope. These anatomical ...

The teenage brain isn’t just trimming connections—it’s secretly building powerful new neural hotspots that may shape the mind ...

Scientists have discovered that the adolescent brain does more than prune old connections. During the teen years, it actively ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch the thalamus and cortex interact in real time. They found that the thalamus ...

Researchers at the University of California, San Diego and the School of Medicine have found that the three-dimensional shape of the cerebral cortex - the wrinkled outer layer of the brain controlling ...

Droplets containing human iPSC-derived neural progenitors were 3D-printed to form 2-layer cerebral cortical tissue, which was cultured before implantation into a mouse brain slice. DNPs: deep-layer ...

Circadian misalignment in adolescents is linked to structural changes in brain regions that regulate emotional processing and cognitive function.

Gum disease affects the cortical structure of the brain, including the surficial area and cortical thickness, suggesting a connection and emphasizing the periodontal tissue-brain axis, according to a ...
