Harnessing the muscle of one of the world's fastest supercomputers, researchers have built one of the largest and most detailed biophysically realistic brain simulations of an animal ever. This ...

The way the brain develops can shape us throughout our lives, so neuroscientists are intensely curious about how it happens.

Research led by the SickKids Research Institute in Toronto and the University of Pennsylvania, has found that immune-related ...

Much as a pilot might practice maneuvers in a flight simulator, scientists might soon be able to perform experiments on a realistic simulation of the mouse brain. In a new study, Stanford Medicine ...

Biophysically detailed simulation of the whole mouse cortex neuron by neuron, with sub-cellular resolution—that is, capturing ion flows and fluctuations of membrane voltage within many compartments ...

A new brain device from Northwestern University is asking a daring question: what if information could reach your brain ...

Your ability to notice what matters visually comes from an ancient brain system over 500 million years old.
