Despite lacking a hippocampus entirely—and having diverged from the mammalian lineage roughly 400 million years ago—larval ...

A new study led by Prof. Chen from the Department of Biomedical Engineering at New York University discovered the function of mechanical constraints in glioblastoma. This study explored the underlying ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers developed spatial aging clocks using single-cell transcriptomics to explore cell-type-specific interactions and their impact on brain ...

Our thoughts are specified by our knowledge and plans, yet our cognition can also be fast and flexible in handling new information. How does the well-controlled and yet highly nimble nature of ...

Researchers have joined forces to give a boost to spatial memory by creating a unique experimental setup that combines non-invasive deep-brain stimulation, virtual reality training, and fMRI imaging.

Certain cells in the brain create a nurturing environment, enhancing the health and resilience of their neighbors, while others promote stress and damage. Using spatial transcriptomics and AI, ...

Although the effects of genes and mutations in diseased and normal states can be studied with technologies like single-cell and RNA sequencing, crucial information is missing about the location and ...

People without other signs of memory loss may struggle with spatial navigation — the ability to recall a familiar route — many years before they develop Alzheimer’s, a new study suggests. In a study ...

Understanding how the brain creates conscious experience remains one of science’s most difficult challenges. Brain scans and ...
