Neural tissue engineering aims to mimic the brain's complex environment, the extracellular matrix, which supports nerve cell growth, development, and proper connectivity. This environment is carefully ...

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

A figure from the research paper shows that both the model and experimental animals learned a task at a very similar pace. A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and ...

In a new study, researchers created an AI model of the mouse visual cortex that predicts neuronal responses to visual images. Much as a pilot might practice maneuvers in a flight simulator, scientists ...

Relating brain activity to behavior is an ongoing aim of neuroimaging research as it would help scientists understand how the brain begets behavior — and perhaps open new opportunities for ...

Researchers at the University of Michigan have created an AI system that can interpret brain MRI scans in just seconds, accurately identifying a wide range of neurological conditions and determining ...

A study introduces a scalable 2D human neuron platform to probe how brain-like rhythms emerge and how specific drugs reshape them, aiding epilepsy and autism research.

Researchers have developed a powerful new software toolbox that allows realistic brain models to be trained directly on data. This open-source framework, called JAXLEY, combines the precision of ...
