The stunning research is supercharging our understanding of human brain disorders and advancing U.S. national interests in ...

Mobile genetic elements may be a source of DNA sequence variation in normal human brain tissue. Geoff Faulkner, now at the University of Queensland, and colleagues showed that retrotransposons, which ...

A new technique has allowed scientists to freeze human brain tissue so that it regains normal function after thawing, potentially opening the door to improved ways of studying neurological conditions.

Researchers say they have mapped more than 200,000 cells in a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and have traced how they're ...

The tiny piece of tissue contained 3.4 ... took that same cubic millimeter of brain and sliced it into more than 28,000 layers, each 1/400 the width of a human hair, and took images of each ...

The stiffness map shows how tissue in each part of the brain ... a reliable way to predict the age of a healthy brain and could be used to identify structural differences that indicate departure from ...

Persistently elevated glucose levels damage the delicate blood vessels supplying oxygen and nutrients to brain tissue ... lapses often get dismissed as normal aging but may represent diabetes ...

an achievement that could offer insight into how the human brain works. They worked out the cerebral architecture in a tissue sample the size of a grain of sand bearing more than 200,000 cells ...
