Neural organoids have been heralded as having huge potential for advancing our knowledge of the brain in several fields.

Recent technological advances facilitate the reconstruction of complete brain connectomes in small organisms and partial ...

A rare group of neurons can reconnect broken spinal circuits and trigger leg muscle activity after spinal cord injury—a ...

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 ...

Using microfluidic devices mimicking the crowded spaces in the developing brain, researchers gained novel insights into distinct modes of locomotion found in neurons. In the developing brain, neurons ...

A major neuroscience breakthrough has been achieved with the help of an artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning algorithm. In a study published this month in Cell, a multinational team of ...

In a first-of-its-kind study, researchers demonstrate that functional nervous systems can form within self-organized living ...

The hypothalamus is a small but critical region at the base of the brain that controls the autonomic nervous system, regulates body temperature, signals hunger and thirst, exerts hormonal control over ...

Understanding and treating brain disorders such as tremor, imbalance, and speech impairments requires deep knowledge of the cerebellum, a part of the brain that’s crucial for making accurate movements ...
