Mount Sinai and BPGbio scientists uncover novel molecular drivers from live brain samples that direct human brain structure ...

Fear has a scent. Here’s how this invisible chemical signal has shaped human perceptions, emotions and survival instincts.

Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

Recent analysis of human brain tissue suggests that a small and often overlooked region deep within the brain may play a central role in bipolar disorder. Researchers found that neurons in the ...

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

New research indicates that the structural organization of the human brain does not develop in a continuous, linear fashion but rather progresses through five distinct phases separated by specific ...

For much of the 20th century, scientists believed that the adult human brain was largely fixed. According to this view, the ...

Findings from the Living Brain Project reveal how senescence processes involved in early brain development may also shape brain aging ...

Researchers outline a roadmap for applying transcranial focused ultrasound, a noninvasive technique for stimulating the brain ...

As people age, structural brain changes influence their ability to adapt to the environment. New from eNeuro , Tatiana Wolfe and colleagues at the University of Arkansas characterized changes in the ...

For the first time, clumps of human cells called organoids were fully integrated with the brains of rats—and influenced their ...
