Even consciousness could reveal its secrets someday with this realistic simulation, researchers hope. It will not only ...

Scientists have created a computer model that aims to mimic the human brain, hoping it might teach us about ourselves.

For more than 100 years, Alzheimer’s disease has been treated as a one‑way descent, a diagnosis that could be delayed at best ...

Organoids are bits of neural tissue that model human brain development. Their use in science makes some uneasy, in part because the brain is so closely tied to our sense of self.

In the patterned brain organoids, by contrast, FGF8 is the only signal that specifies the different domains. Analyzing the brain organoids, the scientists conclude that the FGF8 source in the ...

A new open-source model of brain metabolism, developed by scientists at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), has shown how altering key chemicals could restore aged cells to their youthful ...

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.

The study defines a new neuroscientific paradigm (synergistic model), which allows to better understand the complexity of the interactions between brain, body and environment and paves the way to ...

Brain activity during speech follows a layered timing pattern that matches large language model steps, showing how meaning builds gradually.
