A Japanese research team has successfully reproduced the human neural circuit in vitro using multi-region miniature organs known as assembloids, which are derived from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

Trabecular bone—the spongy bone inside marrow cavities—adapts to its mechanical environment during growth and development. Trabecular structure can therefore be interpreted as a functional record of ...

Bioengineering researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a soft, thin, stretchable bioelectronic device that can be implanted into a ...

The Wistar Institute's Alessandro Gardini, Ph.D., and lab have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular "bridge" ...

The human brain is complex. Understanding deep brain function usually requires the insertion of probes that frequently result ...

For much of the 20th century it was thought that the adult brain was incapable of regeneration. This view has since shifted dramatically and neurogenesis – the birth of new neurons – is now a widely ...

Collaboration and cooperation are key elements of human social interactions, which can contribute to the efficient achievement of shared goals. While many psychology and neuroscience studies have ...

The human brain is a marvel, with intricate pathways connecting its various regions — a superhighway of learning. These neural pathways are the foundation of our thoughts, actions and responses to the ...

Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development ...
