The Individual Brain Charting (IBC) project has released its fifth and largest update of high-resolution fMRI data, adding a ...

We all have negative thoughts from time to time. But what if those fleeting moments of pessimism were doing more than just dampening your mood? According to new research, the way you think doesn't ...

The first wiring diagram of every neuron in an adult brain and the 50 million connections between them has been produced for ...

Researchers discovered that astrocytes form organized, brain-wide networks that enable long-range communication between regions. These dynamic pathways depend on gap junctions and can reorganize with ...

Cells long thought to play a secondary role in brain function build their own far-reaching connections, a new study in mice showed. These pathways appear to connect distant regions in ways that have ...

Scientists traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord to control motor function. Signals relayed to motor neurons from the brain enable muscle ...

In a July 2018 MIT News article, “ Charting the Cerebellum, ” first author Xavier Guell of MIT's McGovern Institute of Brain Research, describes his team’s state-of-the-art mapping of motor and ...

UCLA scientists have produced one of the first high-resolution molecular maps showing how Down syndrome disrupts human brain development before birth. The study analyzed over 100,000 nuclei from ...

Scientists have traced connectivity between neurons to identify how the brain communicates with the spinal cord. A new brain map visualizes the connections between the brain and spinal cord at the ...
