A new AI-powered atlas called NextBrain allows researchers to visualize the human brain in unprecedented detail, down to hundreds of tiny subregions previously invisible on MRI scans.

A new brain decoding method called mind captioning can generate accurate text descriptions of what a person is seeing or recalling—without relying on the brain's language system.

A hidden sleep switch in the brain triggers a sharp tipping point about four minutes before standard sleep onset.

A three-year project to create a detailed 3D 'atlas' of the brain of a lab mouse is now finished. The resulting model will help scientists better understand the effects of treatments and testing ...

Scientists have created a novel organoid model of the human brain that contains astrocytes -- which have been excluded from other models thus far -- to study inflammation in diseases like Alzheimer's.

Using an experimental model to simulate the blood-brain barrier, scientists reported in unprecedented detail how antioxidants protect the brain from inflammation caused by such neurodegenerative ...
