Living brain tissue can now be made transparent, helping scientists see deeper neurons while keeping cells active.

Making a living brain transparent and watching its neurons fire without disturbing their function-sounds like science fiction ...

Innovative technology such as artificial intelligence (AI), brain-computer interfaces and nanotechnology are accelerating neuroscience research in the quest for improving human health and daily lives.

In a significant leap forward for neuroscience, researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara, have successfully created a transparent squid. This feat, accomplished in 2023 through ...

The aging human brain undergoes many structural changes that vary based on genetics, an individual’s lifestyle, and the presence of coexisting diseases. This heterogeneity in brain aging is also ...

A project at the University of California, San Diego has developed a transparent neural implant intended to sit on the surface of the brain and record neural activity deeper inside. Published in ...

Human brain health research is moving beyond universal “norms” toward models that treat culture, language, environment, and structural conditions as central ...

Models of the human brain’s cortex have been made by combining cells from up to five donors. This approach could enable genetic background to be accounted for in studies of brain development and ...

During childhood and adolescence, our brain goes through a lot of changes. But studying those changes in juvenile mice is challenging because scientists don’t have a way to repeatedly image the same ...
