Recent technological advances are allowing neuroscientists to map the human brain with increasing precision, highlighting connections between different regions and their function in greater depth.

Researchers have developed a groundbreaking microscopy method that enables detailed three-dimensional (3D) RNA analysis at cellular resolution in whole intact mouse brains. The new method, called ...

For decades, scientists have searched for a safe way to reach deep parts of the human brain without cutting into the skull.

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 imaging breakthrough combines ultrasound and light-based techniques to generate vivid 3D images that show both tissue ...

Researchers using high-resolution brain scans are finding that when hearing starts to slip, the brain does not simply “turn ...

Certain proteins found in the human brain have long been known to be critical to controlling how brain cells communicate with each other. So-called GABA A receptors are proteins that control the flow ...

Your brain ventricles are four fluid-filled chambers that produce cerebrospinal fluid. This fluid helps nourish your brain and protect it from injury. It would be easy to argue that your brain is the ...

A new study reveals a hidden brain defense: base barrier cells. These cells form a molecular seal in the choroid plexus, acting as a gatekeeper against systemic inflammation and potential ...

Rice University scientists have developed the first complete, label-free molecular atlas of the Alzheimer's brain in an ...
