A few blobs of lab-grown brain tissue have demonstrated a striking proof of concept: living neural circuits can be nudged toward solving a classic control problem through carefully structured feedback ...

Scientists have identified nanoscale lymphatic-like vessels - a network that may help explain how fluids and waste move through brain tissue.

Chiari malformation occurs when part of the skull is abnormally small or misshapen, forcing brain tissue downward into the ...

Scientists at the University of Virginia School of Medicine are chasing a new way to slow glioblastoma, the deadliest brain ...

The team of researchers led by Prof. Kristian Franze found that increasing tissue stiffness induces the expression of chemical signals that are typically absent in those regions. Semaphorin 3A is one ...

Glioblastoma is the most prevalent and aggressive brain tumor. It proliferates very rapidly, is highly invasive, and there is ...

By Vijay Kumar Malesu Scientists are detecting nanoplastics in human brain tissue and exploring how these particles may influence the risk of neurodegenerative diseases, but major questions about ...

C OVID-19 may leave a lasting impression on the brain, even in people who fully recover from their infection. New research ...

Explosions can damage brain cells and blood vessels even when scans look normal, leaving lasting symptoms that are often missed.

Most mammals take one of two approaches to survive the winter: they either hibernate, slowing their bodies to a near ...

Researchers have identified a specific liver protein produced during exercise that strengthens the brain’s protective barrier and improves memory in aging mice. This finding suggests a potential ...

Brain activity has been detected up to an hour after cardiac arrest, challenging long-held beliefs about when death truly occurs.
