Experiments point to how scientists can strengthen or weaken memories, which may eventually lead to treatments for Alzheimer’s disease or PTSD.
From the smallest fragment of brain tissue, the intricate blueprint of the entire brain is beginning to emerge. Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine are making several time-consuming aspects of ...
One notable missing feature in most ANN models is top-down feedback, i.e. projections from higher-order layers to lower-order layers in the network. Top-down feedback is ubiquitous in the brain, and ...
Immediate use for the newly developed assembloids could include studying neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism.
Several transcription factors in developing neurons exhibit broad-to-restricted expression patterns, but the relevance of ...
Four tiny 3D organs connected themselves in a lab dish, forming a replica of the human pain pathway, in a new study. The discovery allows scientists to better understand chronic pain and how pain ...
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 ...
The team of scientists behind the project said the map of neuron wiring was so complex, it looked like a picture of a galaxy.
Thanks to a mouse watching clips from “The Matrix,” scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date.
Researchers have created an AI-powered "digital twin" of the mouse visual cortex that can accurately simulate neural responses to visual input, including movies.
Researchers suggest results could reignite interest in DLK inhibition as a treatment strategy for neurodegenerative diseases.
