Prof Brennan uses a surgical drill to remove a flap of skull. The exposed brain is pink, flushed with blood, and gently ...

Scientists finally found a way to thaw frozen human brain tissue without damaging it. In a groundbreaking development, scientists have discovered a new technique that allows human brain tissue to be ...

Is curing Alzheimer’s an impossible challenge or can we get there? I was invited to attend brain surgery at the forefront of ...

In the mid-2000s, Mark Kotter, MD, PhD, was running a lab studying oligodendrocytes when he started his training in neurosurgery. As a neurosurgeon, he had access to rare brain samples and was able to ...

A group of scientists have managed to thaw frozen human brain tissue without causing any damage to the tissue itself. The new research is coming out of the Fudan University in Shanghai, China, where a ...

Ellie James said she believes her husband would still be alive had the law been in place when he was receiving treatment ...

Researchers say the innovation, known as SmartEM, will speed scanning sevenfold and open the field of connectomics to a ...

Brain samples contained 10 times more microplastics than other organs. The brain may contain higher -- and more significant -- amounts of microplastics than other organs in the body, according to a ...

A research group led by Professor Michael Glickman, dean of Technion's Faculty of Biology, has uncovered a key mechanism in ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

Neural tissue engineering aims to mimic the brain's complex environment, the extracellular matrix, which supports nerve cell growth, development, and proper connectivity. This environment is carefully ...
