The brains of humans and other mammals contain a vast array of neuronal and non-neuronal cell types. The human capacity to process information into complex emotions, behaviours and decisions relies on ...

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

Our brain is arguably the organ that most distinguishes humans from other primates. Its exceptional size, complexity and capabilities far exceed those of any other species on Earth. Yet humans share ...

The brain is the most complicated organ in the human body. With billions of cells that create trillions of connections to allow an individual to move, think, and remember, many of its innerworkings ...

A new study from the Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute now shows how human stem cell based therapy may help ...

A new predictive AI system has been developed to predict gene activity in human cells with high precision. Researchers at Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, led by Raul ...

Not all brain cells are found in the brain. For example, a team at Caltech has identified two distinct types of neurons in the abdomens of mice that appear to control different aspects of digestion.
