WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a part of a mouse's cerebral cortex involved in ...

Researchers say they have mapped more than 200,000 cells in a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and have traced how they're all connected.

Canadian researchers show that stress modifies the morphology of brain cells in mice, directly influencing the rodents' level ...

Combined with the recordings of brain activity, the result is the largest wiring diagram and functional map of the brain to date, containing more than 200,000 cells, four kilometers of axons (the ...

The hippocampus is an important brain region known to support various cognitive (i.e., mental) processes, including the ...

Miniature models of the brain have revealed a "previously unappreciated" role of microglia, a type of cell found within the organ. The finding could help unpack how disorders such as autism arise.

Scientists have found a way to stop brain cancer cells spreading by essentially 'freezing' a key molecule in the brain.
