Imagine sprinting full-speed into a solid oak tree at 15 miles per hour — and then doing it again and again, 20 times per ...

Researchers from the University of Oxford have created the first high-resolution molecular atlas of the adult Drosophila ...

Two companion studies, published in Cell Genomics, reveal how brain development lays the foundation for both shared and sex-specific circuits, redefining how neural diversity arises.

Your brain begins as a single cell. When all is said and done, it will house an incredibly complex and powerful network of some 170 billion cells. How does it organize itself along the way? Cold ...

New research from the University of Wyoming reveals that the brain cells that control hunger may be far more adaptable during ...

Growing neurons rely on chemical cues to find their targets, but new research shows that the brain’s physical properties help ...

In a sweeping new map of the adult Drosophila melanogaster brain, researchers at the University of Oxford found that mature neurons still carry a molecular record of where they came from and when they ...

Over the past decades, computer scientists have developed numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can process human speech in different languages. The extent to which these models replicate ...

How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...

A chronological map of the fetal brain reveals when key cells emerge and provides clues about autism and cancer.

Using brain scans and parent surveys, scientists discovered that infants in households struggling to make ends meet show delayed brain maturation. A mother's feeling of income insufficiency proved to ...

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory postdoc Stan Kerstjens and colleagues have devised a new theory for how the brain organizes ...
