Thanks to a mouse watching clips from “The Matrix,” scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date.

In a massive scientific effort, hundreds of researchers have helped to map the connections between hundreds of thousands of neurons in the mouse brain and then overlayed their firing patterns in ...

The 3D brain map includes more than 200,000 cells, 523 million synapses and over two miles of axons, representing the most detailed wiring diagram of a piece of mammal brain ever constructed ...

Scientists say the map of a speck of a mouse's brain could be as transformative as the Human Genome Project. Here's what to ...

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

From a tiny sample of tissue no larger than a grain of sand, scientists have come within reach of a goal once thought unattainable: building a complete functional wiring diagram of a portion of the ...

In the first clinical study of its kind, researchers at Tokyo's Keio University have developed a stem cell treatment that they say allowed a paralyzed man to stand on his own again following a ...

In an effort to understand how brain cells exchange chemical messages ... to capture this process in cryoEM images. To that end, the scientists purified AMPA receptors, taken from lab-grown human ...

Researchers looking into chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a disease linked to repeated head blows, say they have made a breakthrough in their understanding of the condition. Neuroscientists at ...

A new study suggests that never-seen-before stem cells in the human retina can restore vision in mice with a common eye disorder. But more work is needed to translate the treatment to people.
