Neuroscientists have been trying to understand how the brain processes visual information for over a century. The development of computational models inspired by the brain's layered organization, also ...

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

Many people with multiple sclerosis struggle with balance and coordination, and this study uncovers a hidden reason why.

Pea-size clusters of human cells called brain organoids inspire both hope and fear. Experts are debating how scientists can ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology has not only learned a simple visual ...

Researchers have made great strides to understand early signs of autism. Studies have found that certain factors like ...

Organoids are bits of neural tissue that model human brain development. Their use in science makes some uneasy, in part because the brain is so closely tied to our sense of self.

Researchers have crossed a threshold that once belonged squarely to science fiction: they have built working models of brains ...

De Zavala Elementary in Midland has implemented the School Action Fund STEM model to provide students with high-quality learning experiences in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.

For the first time, scientists have grown functional, brain-like tissue without using any animal-derived materials or added biological coatings. The development opens the door to more controlled and ...

Like the seeds of a forest, a few cells in embryos eventually sprout into an ecosystem of brain cells. Neurons get the most recognition for their computing power. But a host of other cells provides ...
