Understanding how the brain works requires more than studying single regions in isolation. The cerebral cortex depends on long-distance connections that link specialized areas into coordinated ...

A new single-cell atlas shows how epigenetic changes reshape brain cells during aging, revealing genomic instability, ...

Cortical Labs uses human brain cells attached to silicon chips to create biological computers that could offer energy ...

Microscopy image of a human stem cell-derived hippocampal organoid. When the tissue carries an epilepsy-causing variant in the SCN8A gene, inhibitory neurons (seen in red) are disrupted, and ...

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 ...

The human brain holds a staggering number of connections, yet scientists have long struggled to explain how it stores so much ...
