GFAP immunoreactivity was also greater in the piriform cortex of homozygotes, although the difference between genotypes did not reach statistical significance in this region. Tg12099 rats on a rat ...

A group of scientists successfully completed a brain cell transplant, combining human cells with those of baby rats.

An emotional brain or limbic system that is responsible for our feelings flip-flops between negative emotions based on fears and positive emotions that come from reason. A prefrontal cortex that gives ...

The transformation of a woman’s brain during pregnancy has been a long-neglected field of research, but a study has revealed a metamorphosis driven by hormonal fluctuations, with some changes in ...

New Brain Network Discovery Rewrites The Textbook On The Motor Cortex The mind and body appear to be connected in ways that no one previously understood.

Researchers from the Max Delbrück Center have discovered a brain region responsible for perceptions of hot and cold when humans touch objects. The study, published in Nature, presents findings on the ...

A team of researchers at the University of Pennsylvania has inserted human neurons into the brains of rats with damaged visual cortices.

A research team says it has shown for the first time that human brain organoids implanted in mice have established functional connectivity to the animals’ cortex and responded to external ...
