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 ...

The medical consequences of traumatic brain injuries are well-studied and affect millions of Americans every year. But one of ...

The human brain's soft folds and ridges, arising in early development and continuing through the first 18 months of life, are ...

Brain science just pulled off its biggest flex yet. While you were debating whether AI will steal your job, neuroscientists mapped brain tissue with precision that makes your smartphone camera look ...

Scientists have discovered that the human brain understands spoken language in a way that closely resembles how advanced AI language models work. By tracking brain activity as people listened to a ...

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 ...

After three years of study, the researchers found that alpha-synuclein, a protein closely linked to Parkinson’s disease, ...

UCLA scientists have developed advanced miniature 3D tumor organoid models that make it possible to study glioblastoma tumors in a setting that closely mirrors the human brain, shedding light on how ...

Machine learning decodes brain signals for paralysis recovery in just one second using sensors placed on scalp not inside ...
