Different populations of cells in the mouse brain, each one targeted with high specificity by one of the many new genetic tools developed at the Allen Institute. The brain is like an ...
“This is a paradigm shift,” says Donn Van Deren, PhD, postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, who ...
A major neuroscience breakthrough has been achieved with the help of an artificial intelligence (AI) deep learning algorithm. In a study published this month in Cell, a multinational team of ...
The human brain is much more flexible than we ever thought. New studies have begun to suggest that, even in adulthood, the ...
You wouldn't microwave fish around your worst enemy—the smell lingers both in kitchen and memory. It is one few of us like, let alone have positive associations with. But what makes our brains decide ...
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 ...
Shifting focus on a visual scene without moving our eyes — think driving, or reading a room for the reaction to your joke — is a behavior known as covert ...
A new study in the lab of Jason Stein, Ph.D., modeled brain development in a dish to identify cells and genes that influence ...
This color-coded graphic shows different populations of cells in the mouse brain, each one targeted by one of the genetic tools developed by scientists at the Allen Institute and other institutions.
