Researchers say the innovation, known as SmartEM, will speed scanning sevenfold and open the field of connectomics to a ...

Both for research and medical purposes, researchers have spent decades pushing the limits of microscopy to produce ever deeper and sharper images of brain activity, not only in the cortex but also in ...

As prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers eye limits to the current phase of the technology, a different approach ...

For decades, scientists have pushed the limits of microscopy to capture sharper and deeper views of the brain. Traditional light-based systems can map the cortex in detail but struggle to reach deeper ...

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

Our brain is a complex organ. Billions of nerve cells are wired in an intricate network, constantly processing signals, enabling us to recall memories or to move our bodies. Making sense of this ...

The next time you reach for a memory or make a quick choice, a storm of tiny signals races through your brain. Scientists can ...

In order to understand brain diseases, neuroscientists try to untangle the intricate nerve fibre labyrinth of our brain. Before analysing brain tissue under a microscope, it is often soaked in ...

A new study has pinpointed cells in the brains of mice that have the unique ability to proliferate and may help to repair damaged tissue. Scientists now need to determine if similar cells exist in ...
