By tagging neurons with molecular "barcodes," researchers have mapped connections among thousands of neurons in the mouse ...

Researchers identify a gene expression program in the living human brain that tracks with real-time neurotransmission, bridging the gap between genetics and electrical brain activity.

To navigate something as complex and dynamic as the brain, a map would help. Researchers have learned an enormous amount about how we think, what drives our behaviors, and why we feel the way we do ...

Scientists have traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord. A new brain map visualizes the connections between the brain and spinal cord at the ...

The first wiring diagram of every neuron in an adult brain and the 50 million connections between them has been produced for a fruit fly. This landmark achievement has been conducted by a large ...

Researchers used AI and deep learning to find a link between brain structure and navigation skills but found no measurable ...

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 ...

For more than a century, maps of the brain have been based on how brain tissue looks under the microscope. These anatomical maps divide the brain into regions according to structural variations in the ...

In a July 2018 MIT News article, “ Charting the Cerebellum, ” first author Xavier Guell of MIT's McGovern Institute of Brain Research, describes his team’s state-of-the-art mapping of motor and ...

Scientists traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord to control motor function. Signals relayed to motor neurons from the brain enable muscle ...
