3D brain atlases are key resources to understand the brain’s spatial organization and promote interoperability across different studies. However, unlike the adult mouse brain, the lack of developing ...

The activity of neurons in the mammalian brain is known to contribute to the development of the brain at the early stages of development. While past neuroscientific studies have gathered evidence ...

Brain growth and maturation doesn't progress in a linear, stepwise fashion. Instead, it's a dynamic, choreographed sequence that shifts in response to genetics and external stimuli like sight and ...

While numerous studies have cataloged cells present in the brain at maturity 1, many fundamental questions about their development remain unresolved. In particular, the molecular profiles, the timing ...

A novel reversible, noninvasive technique to observe neuron formation and firing in juvenile mice has been developed. During childhood and adolescence, our brain goes through a lot of changes. But ...

During childhood and adolescence, our brain goes through a lot of changes. But studying those changes in juvenile mice is challenging because scientists don't have a way to repeatedly image the same ...

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 ...

Senescent "zombie" cells are essential architects required to build and maintain the brain's protective barriers.
