A team of researchers has created the first 'multiome' atlas of brain cell development in the human cerebral cortex across six broad developmental time points from fetal development into adulthood, ...

Scientists used high-resolution MRI data to create a valuable new resource for the study of human brain development at key moments in utero and after birth. Scientists at the UNC School of Medicine ...

The long-term neurologic morbidity for preterm and ill term human newborns remains a serious concern. Among these infants, hypercapnia is a common occurrence. Current clinical practice often allows ...

A layer deep in the cerebral cortex, which is the innermost layer of the mammalian brain, has recently been found to play a role in the regulation of brain states associated with wakefulness and ...

A recent study published in Nature Communications demonstrated how droplet-based three-dimensional (3D) printing could help fabricate cerebral cortex tissues comprising layer-specific neurons ...

“Rather than actively shaping experience, the thalamus (if it is considered at all) has typically been relegated to a role in gating contents into consciousness,” the team explains in its paper.

Dr. David Fitzpatrick, Scientific Director and CEO at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience, has been awarded a $2.4 million five-year grant from the National Eye Institute (NEI) of the ...

It takes a lot of connections to create human intelligence. Brain function depends on contacts between multiple regions within the brain. To study how this connectivity is possible - and how it can go ...

This pattern suggested that the RT was not only more sensitive to input, but also more likely to produce spontaneous activity that could disrupt brain function. “Most previous studies have focused on ...
