What did the very first complex vertebrate brain look like? To find out, scientists turned to an unlikely time traveler: the ...

A new study constructs the first 3D single-cell brain atlas of the lamprey, uncovering the 450-million-year-old molecular blueprint of vertebrates.

Over the past decade, the Human Cell Atlas community has accomplished something that will define a generation of biology.

A new "atlas" developed by researchers at Duke University School of Medicine, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, and the University of Pittsburgh will increase precision in measuring ...

BEIJING, 23rd June, 2026 (WAM) - Chinese scientists have recently constructed the first three-dimensional spatial single-cell atlas of the lamprey whole brain, which is equivalent to drawing a ...

Signals relayed to motor neurons from the brain enable muscle movement, but these signals typically pass through spinal interneurons before they reach their destination. How the brain and this highly ...

Brain growth and maturation doesn't progress in a linear, stepwise fashion. Instead, it's a dynamic, choreographed sequence that shifts in response to genetics and external stimuli like sight and ...

Think of the human brain like a puzzle: an elaborate system of communication between many different linking pieces. Except, a few of the pieces are dusty, and it’s hard to discern where they fit to ...

A new AI-assisted brain atlas that can help visualize the human brain in unprecedented detail has been developed by UCL researchers, in a major step forward for neuroscience and neuroimaging. The ...

Developing advanced systems for 3D brain tissue segmentation from neonatal magnetic resonance (MR) images is vital for newborn structural analysis. However, automatic segmentation of neonatal brain ...

A new 3D 'atlas' of the mouse brain promises to sharpen scientists' ability to measure brain changes and share findings across studies of diseases like Alzheimer's. The mouse brain atlas combines ...
