Brain development does not end at 25 but continues into the early 30s as neural networks become more efficient and ...

A new study from Northwestern University is reshaping how scientists think about brain evolution. The research suggests that ...

There’s this idea that something happens in the human brain when we turn 25. Suddenly, we can rent a car without fees. Make ...

Pea-size clusters of human cells called brain organoids inspire both hope and fear. Experts are debating how scientists can responsibly use these bits of gray matter.

A cutting-edge laboratory technique that turns human stem cells into brain-like tissue now recapitulates human brain development more accurately than ever, according to a new study from Case Western ...

Researchers have now discovered that HAR123, a regulatory gene sequence, is an important factor in human brain development. Even though humans are closely related to chimps, the slight differences in ...

Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development ...
