Scientists have created a new way to map how brain cells connect by assigning each neuron a unique molecular “barcode.” Using this approach, they were able to trace connections among thousands of ...

From the smallest fragment of brain tissue, the intricate blueprint of the entire brain is beginning to emerge. Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine are making several time-consuming aspects of ...

Researchers released the first detailed map of smell receptors in the nose, organized into horizontal stripes that mirror the ...

New multiplexed imaging technology using standard clinical MRI systems can simultaneously map more than 20 biomarkers in high resolution, providing a comprehensive view of the brain with a single scan ...

Next-gen brain maps: Researchers are creating probabilistic and histological atlases from high-resolution MRI, offering standardized, detailed views of brain anatomy. Beyond static images: ...

A cellular-resolution map of prenatal brain development in Down syndrome reveals disrupted neuron production timing and altered cell types.

A new computational method could dramatically accelerate efforts to map the body's cells in space, according to a study ...

New maps show the precise location of millions of oligodendrocytes in the mouse brain over its lifespan. Johns Hopkins (MD, USA) scientists say they have used 3D imaging, special microscopes and ...

Veronica Paulus is a former STAT intern supported by the Harvard University Institute of Politics. Neuroscientists have long held that the brain reorganizes itself when a body part is amputated. A new ...
