Brain mapping is a fascinating scientific endeavour that investigates how our brains are structured and how they change over time. This process examines how learning, ageing, mental illness, and brain ...

Weill Cornell Medicine investigators have identified in a preclinical model a specific brain circuit whose inhibition appears to reduce anxiety without side effects. Their work suggests a new target ...

Awake craniotomy remains at the forefront of neurosurgical innovation, allowing for the resection of brain tumours adjacent to critical functional areas while minimising neurological deficits. This ...

A new way of mapping activity and connections between different regions of the brain has revealed fresh insights into how higher order functions like language, thought and attention, are organised.

A genome-wide CRISPR study maps 331 genes essential for early brain development, identifying PEDS1 as a new ...

Researchers from The University of Texas at Arlington and the University of California–San Francisco have used a new brain-mapping technique to identify memory-related brain cells vulnerable to ...

For many heartbreaking diseases of the brain — dementia, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and others — doctors can only treat the symptoms. Medical science does not have a cure. Why? Because it’s difficult to ...

The Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) in the Institute of Basic Science (IBS), Suwon, Korea, is developing new neuroimaging approaches to explore biophysics, physiology, and biology, and ...

After nine years of painstaking work, an international team of researchers on Wednesday published a precise map of the vision centers of a mouse brain, revealing the exquisite structures and ...
