After nine years of painstaking work, an international team of researchers on Wednesday published a precise map of the vision centers of a mouse brain, revealing the exquisite structures and ...

A ground-breaking study shows the most detailed map of a mammal's brain to date. The 3D blueprints display more than two miles of neural wiring, close to 100,000 nerve cells, and about 500 million ...

Scientists have achieved a feat once believed impossible, constructing the largest functional map of a brain to date, which they believe could eventually lead to the discovery of medications for ...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Thanks to a mouse watching clips from "The Matrix," scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date – a diagram of the wiring connecting 84,000 neurons as they ...

A subset of more than 1,000 neurons, representing just a snapshot of the complexity mapped within a cubic millimeter of mouse brain tissue Allen Institute In 1979, biologist Francis Crick claimed it ...

A new 3D 'atlas' of the mouse brain promises to sharpen scientists' ability to measure brain changes and share findings across studies of diseases like Alzheimer's. The mouse brain atlas combines ...

For decades, Alzheimer’s disease has been framed as a one‑way slide, with treatments aiming only to slow the descent. Now a cluster of animal studies is challenging that assumption, showing that ...

Analysing a mouse’s brain activity tells scientists where the animal is located and the exact direction it is looking. With further research, the findings could one day help robots navigate ...

Creating a virtual brain may sound like a science-fiction nightmare, but for neuroscientists in Japan and at Seattle’s Allen Institute, it’s a big step toward a long-held dream. They say their ...

Scientists created the largest functional map of a brain to date using a piece of a mouse's brain. The map details the wiring that connects neurons, offering insight into brain function and ...
