We know that some animals are bilaterian—meaning they display bilateral symmetry—while others are not, but nature is rarely ...

Scientists at The Jackson Laboratory (JAX) have developed mouse models that survive premature death and enable pre-clinical ...

In our new study, we turned to the human brain to help us create a new, energy-efficient visual place recognition system. Our system uses a brain-inspired technology called neuromorphic computing.

Scientists Reveal Implications of Microplastics on the Human Brain Up to a “spoonful” may be lurking in the vital organ. By Korin Miller Published: Jun 18, 2025 12:32 PM EDT Save Article ...

T cells have been found in the brain meninges as well (May 2021 news; Feb 2025 news), but flow cytometry and single-cell RNA sequencing confirmed that these SFO CD4+ T cells are distinct. They ...

A team of scientists at the University of California, Riverside, explains in a paper published in PLoS Pathogens how a microscopic parasite, Toxoplasma gondii, can significantly disrupt brain function ...

Existing two-dimensional cell cultures and stem cell-derived organoids have shown significant limitations in reproducing the complex architecture and function of the brain. To overcome these ...

Developing natural, intuitive, and human-centric input systems for mobile human-machine interaction (HMI) poses significant challenges. Existing gaze or gesture-based interaction systems are often ...

Coronal brain section indicating the mPFC region (dark grey) where AAV-Fos::CreER T2 and Cre-dependent AAV-hSyn::DIO-mCherry were injected. Mice underwent CFC at 16 weeks old and engram cells were ...

Elon Musk's Neuralink is working on a revolutionary brain implant, Blindsight, in monkeys. The device aims to restore vision and possibly grant "superhuman capabilities" like infrared sight.

Size is also a major factor - the giant sei whale brain used in this study was almost three times as big as a human brain, creating a number of complications.
