Scientists say they've put together a molecular toolkit that could be used to treat a variety of brain diseases, possibly including epilepsy, ...

Any disruption, even slight, can rapidly trigger Alzheimer’s-like damage. For the first time, researchers have shown using living human brain tissue how a toxic variant of a protein associated with ...

University of Edinburgh team uses live brain slices to reveal how tiny protein imbalances can trigger Alzheimer’s-like damage ...

Scientists using living human brain tissue have shown for the first time how a toxic form of a protein linked to Alzheimer's can stick to and damage the connections between brain cells. Small ...

The researchers claim LICONN is the first technology beyond electron microscopy (EM) that is capable of reconstructing brain tissue with all the synaptic connections between neurons. It also opens ...

Why Trust Us? A new package of papers examines the largest map yet of mammalian brain tissue. The map shows one cubic millimeter worth of neurons in the visual cortex of a mouse. Many brain ...
