New 3D reconstructions of a key sensory organ in ctenophores reveal an unexpected structural and functional complexity. The ...

Neurodegenerative disease profoundly affects structures and pathways responsible for memory, cognition, and higher-order ...

In a landmark study published in Cell Reports, scientists demonstrated that mouse cortical organoids (miniature, lab-grown ...

For decades, scientists have mapped attention, memory, language, and reasoning to separate brain networks — yet one big mystery remained: why does the mind feel like a single, unified system?

Examining brain plasticity and its implications for development, aging, and brain injury recovery.

Neuroscientists propose a new theory of brain development where cells organize based on lineage rather than long-range signals.

No body, no dopamine, no problem. Scientists have successfully coached lab-grown brain tissue to solve a classic robotics challenge, proving that the will to learn is hardwired into our neurons.

If you don’t know the term “brain rot” by now, congratulations! You probably don’t have it. It’s slang to describe the idea ...

Menopause is linked to higher rates of anxiety, depression, and sleep disruption, along with subtle losses of gray matter in brain regions involved in emotion and memory, and hormone replacement ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in which aging cells change how they function—is associated with human brain ...

Recently, a neuroimaging study funded by the European Research Council introduced “NextBrain,” a three-dimensional, probabilistic, high-resolution brain atlas that maps the brain into 333 regions to ...

A new study finds that brain changes are not a steady progression; instead, distinct neural rewiring occurs around ages 9, 32, 66, and 83. A new study of brain MRIs has pinpointed four major turning ...
