European Commission's Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) scheme has granted 4 M€ to an international consortium aiming to construct a functional 3D neuronal structure mimicking the human brain.

The first wiring diagram of every neuron in an adult brain and the 50 million connections between them has been produced for a fruit fly. This landmark achievement has been conducted by a large ...

Hormone levels fluctuate like the tides, ebbing and flowing according to carefully orchestrated cycles. These hormones not only influence the body, but can cross into the brain and shape the behavior ...

In a recent Communications Chemistry article, researchers presented a novel approach to interfacing with neuronal structures using light-responsive azobenzene polymer thin films. Image Credit: ...

The first wiring diagram of every neuron in an adult brain and the 50 million connections between them has been produced for a fruit fly. The diagram of all 139,255 neurons in the adult fly brain is ...

There is new evidence that the cells responsible for communication in the brain may be structured differently in children with autism. Researchers discovered that in some areas of the brain neuron ...

A team of researchers has developed a technique for diagnosing, managing and treating neurological disorders with minimal surgical risks. A team of researchers led by Rice University's Jacob Robinson ...

Researchers found that sargramostim decreased UCH-L1 and total tau levels in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s patients. MMSE cognitive scores improved, and mouse models confirmed reduced neuronal ...
