It's been recognized for some time that Alzheimer's disease affects brain regions differently and that tau—a protein known to ...

From a cubic millimeter of brain tissue, scientists have constructed a precise, 3D map of the activity in a mouse’s brain, detailing 84,000 neurons and more than 500 million synapses.

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 know.

The digital twin of one particular mouse was able to predict the anatomical locations and cell type of thousands of neurons in the visual cortex as well as the connections between these neurons.

This month, the Machine Intelligence From Cortical Networks (MICrONS) consortium released the most comprehensive map ever assembled of a mammalian brain. The years-long effort painstakingly charted a ...

Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a part of a mouse's cerebral cortex involved in vision, an achievement ...

To identify the origin of this instructive signal, they studied the axonal projections from a nearby brain region called the entorhinal cortex (EC), which innervates the hippocampus and acts as a ...

We’re looking at one tiny part … of a mouse’s brain and the beauty and complexity that you can see in these actual neurons and the hundreds of millions of connections between them.” How we think, feel ...

This important study presents a new method for longitudinally tracking cells in two-photon imaging data that addresses the specific challenges of imaging neurons in the developing cortex. It provides ...

A team of engineers and neuroscientists has demonstrated for the first time that human brain organoids implanted in mice have established functional connectivity to the animals' cortex and ...

Mapping one cubic millimeter of a mouse’s visual cortex The researchers digitally disentangled tens of thousands of individual tree-like neurons, traced each neuron’s distinct system of branches, then ...

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