Challenging a long-standing assumption regarding the adult brain, recent research has demonstrated that individuals can continue to develop new brain cells into old age. Researchers at Sweden’s ...

As prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers eye limits to the current phase of the technology, a different approach is gaining attention: using living human brain cells as computational ...

Turn out, exercise is not only good for your heart but can also boost brain health: Robert Love shares 3 exercises that can help you grow new brain cells.

Pioneering work turns stem cells into brain cells in cultures to potentially treat disorders. Research pioneers turn skin cells from patients with psychiatric conditions into stem cells and then brain ...

For the first time, scientists have grown functional, brain-like tissue without using any animal-derived materials or added biological coatings. The development opens the door to more controlled and ...

Brain organoids can be a good step forward, assuming they are grown from induced human pluripotent stem cells. That allows us to sidestep ethical concerns about the use of human embryos, thereby ...

A new study in the lab of Jason Stein, Ph.D., modeled brain development in a dish to identify cells and genes that influence ...

Researchers used miniature human brains grown in the lab to uncover why certain genetic mutations lead to abnormally small ...

Scientists are testing a strikingly simple idea for calming some of the brain’s most stubborn seizures: remove the aging ...
