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

New research indicates that the structural organization of the human brain does not develop in a continuous, linear fashion ...

The brain has five major structural phases during the human lifespan and doesn't reach adulthood until age 32, a new study suggests. Scientists determined that brain development is defined by four ...

A study suggesting that the human brain enters a stable phase around age 32 has people in their 20s feeling validated. University of Cambridge neuroscientists released their research results on ...

The human brain is often compared to a computer, but the latest wave of research shows it is closer to a self-building city, ...

In humans, the process of learning is driven by different groups of cells in the brain firing together. For instance, when the neurons associated with the process of recognizing a dog begin to fire in ...

By editing thousands of genes in mouse stem cells, the scientists identified a list of over 300 that are crucial for neural differentiation.

A large genetic screen has revealed how stem cells transform into brain cells, exposing hundreds of genes that make this ...

An international research team identified hundreds of genes essential for the development of brain cells, including one gene ...
