Controlled shinbone compression triggered bone cells to release neuroprotective signals, improving brain injury recovery in ...

Scientists have grown human brain tissue to fill most of a mouse’s cortex, creating a new model for studying brain disease and neural circuits.

Joel W. Blanchard, an associate professor of neuroscience at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, and his team report ...

Stanford’s xenocortication shows human brain tissue thriving in mice lacking cortex, offering a third window into human brain development and ethics.

Stanford researchers implanted lab-grown human brain tissue into newborn rats, where it matured, connected to neural circuits, and helped scientists study brain development and disease.

"Experiments to run AI using human brain cells are underway"—it sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie, but this is ...

Research into human-animal chimeras could have a therapeutic payoff, but the work brings up thorny ethical questions.

The human brain begins developing along two distinct paths, a discovery that could help scientists grow hard-to-make neurons in the lab.

Neuroscientists have made a major advance in modeling the human brain in mice, offering a new way to study conditions like cerebral palsy. Ethicists ask if it changes how these mice should be treated.

The human brain is often described as one of biology’s greatest mysteries. Researchers at Stanford have found evidence that the developing brain begins from two distinct developmental origins, with ...
