To navigate something as complex and dynamic as the brain, a map would help. Researchers have learned an enormous amount about how we think, what drives our behaviors, and why we feel the way we do ...

Across a typical lifetime, the human brain does not simply grow, peak, and decline. It passes through five sweeping ...

Scientists have created the first map of the crucial structures called mitochondria throughout the entire brain ― a feat that could help to unravel age-related brain disorders 1. The results show that ...

Using machine learning to guide microscopes could reveal greater insights into the brain's connectome and deepen our ...

The world’s most powerful supercomputers can now run simulations of billions of neurons, and researchers hope such models ...

SEATTLE, WASH. — From a tiny sample of tissue no larger than a grain of sand, scientists have come within reach of a goal once thought unattainable: building a complete functional wiring diagram of a ...

Using an algorithm they call the Krakencoder, researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine are a step closer to unraveling how the brain’s wiring supports the way we think and act. The study, published June ...

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