A massive, multi-year project led by over 150 scientists has produced the most detailed map yet of how visual information ...

Researchers say they have mapped more than 200,000 cells in a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and have traced how they're ...

Researchers have created the largest and most detailed wiring diagram of a mammalian brain to date, by mapping cells in a ...

Scientists achieved “a milestone” by charting the activity and structure of 200,000 cells in a mouse brain and their 523 ...

Scientists have identified a previously unknown type of neural stem cell (pNSC) that exists outside the brain and spinal cord ...

In the first comprehensive, cell-by-cell analysis of brain tissue from individuals with Tourette syndrome, researchers have pinpointed exactly which cells are perturbed and how they malfunction, ...

In the developing brain, neurons must navigate through complex and often crowded tissue to reach their final ...

A new study reveals that chronic stress activates immune cells that travel to the brain, amplify inflammation, and heighten fear responses.

Nearly 150 years ago, scientists began to imagine how information might flow through the brain based on the shapes of neurons ...

In the first comprehensive, cell-by-cell analysis of brain tissue from individuals with Tourette syndrome, researchers have pinpointed exactly which cells are perturbed and how they malfunction, ...

A new study suggests that fear and the immune system are connected in previously unknown ways. Researchers found that the immune system can influence stress and fear behaviors by changing how brain ...

From a cubic millimeter of brain tissue, scientists have constructed a precise, 3D map of the activity in a mouse’s brain, detailing 84,000 neurons and more than 500 million synapses.
