Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

Physical gel models and numerical simulations have been created to study ferret brain gyrification and cortical malformations, while comparisons with human phenotypes aim to link genetics and brain ...

A new study from Northwestern University is reshaping how scientists think about brain evolution. The research suggests that ...

The size and structure of our brains go a long way to explaining what makes us human. But what caused our brains to become what they are? KPBS Sci-Tech Reporter Thomas Fudge spoke to UC San Diego ...

We have long believed that brain growth stops and aging begins once we pass the age of 20. However, a study by British ...

Brain growth slowed down about 300,000 years ago due to energetic and climate pressures, according to a study published in Brain & Cognition. One of the puzzles of human evolution is why Homo sapiens ...

Stem cells hold great promise for researching and treating neurodegenerative diseases. Like blank Scrabble tiles, they have the potential to become any cell in the body. Beyond the hype and danger of ...
