Neural tissue engineering aims to mimic the brain's complex environment, the extracellular matrix, which supports nerve cell ...

Researchers mapped brain topology changes across the lifespan, identifying four critical turning points that shape neural ...

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 portion of the ...

UCR scientists create a fully synthetic model for growing brain cells that could allow for animal-free drug testing.

The long-held belief that brain structure is fixed early in life has largely given way to the well-established concept of ...

Adjuvant chemotherapy has been associated with mild cognitive decline among a subset of breast cancer survivors. Late cognitive effects after chemotherapy can have a deleterious impact on survivor ...

Researchers have created functional brain-like tissue without relying on any animal-derived materials, marking a major step toward more ethical and reproducible neurological research.

Cranial nerves are pairs of nerves that connect your brain to different parts of your head, neck, and trunk. Each nerve has a corresponding roman numeral between i and xii. Your cranial nerves are ...

New research shows that mild COVID-19 alters brain structure and connectivity in key areas responsible for memory and cognition, emphasizing the lasting effects on young people’s brain health. Study: ...
