A new study reveals that mice instinctively display rescue-like behaviors toward anesthetized peers, offering powerful evidence that prosociality may be hardwired in mammals.
A team of over 150 scientists has achieved what once seemed impossible: a complete wiring and activity map of a tiny section ...
Thanks to a mouse watching clips from “The Matrix,” scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date.
In 1979, famed molecular biologist Francis Crick stated that it would be “impossible to create an exact wiring diagram for a ...
This monumental effort represents the most detailed wiring diagram of a mammal brain ever, and it holds important implications for studying brain disorders in humans. “It definitely inspires a ...
WASHINGTON - Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a part of a mouse’s cerebral cortex involved in vision ...
What began with a sliver of brain tissue no larger than a grain of sand has culminated in a scientific achievement once deemed impossible. A global team of researchers has unveiled the most intricate ...
Scientists have created the most detailed wiring diagram of a mammalian brain to date, mapping every cell and synapse in a cubic millimeter of a mouse’s visual cortex. Using cutting-edge microscopy, ...
“It is no use asking for the impossible, such as, say, the exact wiring diagram for a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and the way all its neurons are firing,” Crick wrote in Scientific America ...
