A hidden communication network between brain cells and glioblastoma tumors may be key to slowing this aggressive cancer.

An Indian-origin professor at Harvard University is using a smart, AI-powered system called SmartEM to help scientists map ...

Groundbreaking research reveals that human microbes can trigger genetic brain activity in other species, suggesting our ...

Despite lacking a hippocampus entirely—and having diverged from the mammalian lineage roughly 400 million years ago—larval ...

The world’s most powerful supercomputers can now run simulations of billions of neurons, and researchers hope such models ...

Researchers have come up with a clever new way of freezing brain cells just as they fire out a signal, meaning processes that normally happen too quickly to observe can be studied in detail – and ...
