A hidden communication network between brain cells and glioblastoma tumors may be key to slowing this aggressive cancer.

An Indian-origin professor at Harvard University is using a smart, AI-powered system called SmartEM to help scientists map ...

The first hint of a brain developed on Earth around 600 million years ago, and now, some version of the organ can be found in nearly every animal in the world. Humans have the largest brain size ...

The world’s most powerful supercomputers can now run simulations of billions of neurons, and researchers hope such models ...

Scientists have discovered that the human brain understands spoken language in a way that closely resembles how advanced AI language models work. By tracking brain activity as people listened to a ...

A neuroscientist survey shows that 40 percent think it might be possible to preserve a human brain, potentially well enough ...

Researchers have come up with a clever new way of freezing brain cells just as they fire out a signal, meaning processes that normally happen too quickly to observe can be studied in detail – and ...

The research strengthens the gut brain connection but it is not evidence that probiotics can treat mental health or boost intelligence. Humans have unusually large brains for our body size and brains ...

Humans possess a remarkable balance between stability and flexibility, enabling them to quickly establish new plans and adjust goals even in the face of sudden changes. However, "Model-Free ...

New research shows gut bacteria can directly influence how the brain develops and functions. When scientists transferred microbes from different primates into mice, the animals’ brains began to ...
