You might expect that with age comes a natural progression of brain degeneration, but new research shows that this might not be the case for all regions of the brain. A new analysis of mouse and human ...

Scientists have created a super-map of the brain containing 30 million cells to trace the prenatal origins of diseases.

Near-infrared spectroscopy, or fNIRS, offers a way to monitor brain activity without surgery or radiation by tracking changes ...

"Our study shows that CA1 neurons are organized into four thin, continuous bands, each representing a different neuron type defined by a unique molecular signature. These layers aren't fixed in place; ...

Scientists have spent decades trying to understand whether the layered sheet of tissue that covers your brain follows one common pattern for handling information. Each region of the cortex contains ...

Scientists have discovered a hidden drainage system in the human brain that may help explain Alzheimer’s disease.

A small exploratory study of the brains of children who have autism has shown that some abnormalities appear to form early in fetal development. The differences are seen in certain brain layers. The ...

Scientists have discovered that the human brain understands spoken language in a way that closely resembles how advanced AI language models work. By tracking brain activity as people listened to a ...

What causes gray matter loss in Multiple Sclerosis? New research identifies DNA damage in CUX2 neurons as a primary driver of MS progression.

A new type of brain implant may have implications for both brain research and future treatments of neurological diseases such as epilepsy. Researchers from DTU, the University of Copenhagen, ...
