Researchers from the Paris Brain Institute and Sainte-Justine University Hospital in Montreal have, for the first time, ...

In this study, the authors use microCT to image an intact hatchling octopus and segment major organ systems, including the vascular, respiratory, digestive, and nervous systems. The resulting dataset ...

This study presents important findings for the understanding of central brain circuits that underlie nociception-induced escape. Using a laser-based nociception assay, chronic neuronal silencing, ...

Human anatomy is far from complete, with ongoing discoveries reshaping understanding of variation, structure, and disease.

Accurate and reliable segmentation of multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is essential for diagnosis and monitoring disease progression. Therefore, a robust and ...

The human brain is complex. Artificial intelligence (AI) machine learning and medical imaging data are accelerating breakthroughs in brain health, especially in medical diagnostics. A peer-reviewed ...

New experiments reveal how astrocytes tune neuronal activity to modulate our mental and emotional states. The results suggest that neuron-only brain models, such as connectomes, leave out a crucial ...

Artificial intelligence allows tracing the evolution of genetic control elements in the developing mammalian cerebellum. An international research team led by biologists from Heidelberg University as ...

What would it mean to simulate a human brain? Today’s most powerful computing systems now contain enough computational firepower to run simulations of billions of neurons, comparable to the ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Scientists showed that it’s possible to reproduce an entire cerebral cortex inside one of the world’s fastest computers. The model represents the ...

The FDA approved a label change for Pfizer’s birth control injection Depo-Provera on Dec. 13, adding a warning about the risk of meningioma — a brain tumor — to two versions of the drug. The update ...
