After nine years of painstaking work, an international team of researchers on Wednesday published a precise map of the vision centers of a mouse brain, revealing the exquisite structures and ...

A ground-breaking study shows the most detailed map of a mammal's brain to date. The 3D blueprints display more than two miles of neural wiring, close to 100,000 nerve cells, and about 500 million ...

Most of the time, you assume your brain is either “on” or “off,” awake or asleep. A new study shows something far more ...

Scientists have achieved a feat once believed impossible, constructing the largest functional map of a brain to date, which they believe could eventually lead to the discovery of medications for ...

Anxiety is often described as a whole‑brain problem, but a series of mouse experiments suggests that, in some cases, a single ...

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 ...

A new 3D 'atlas' of the mouse brain promises to sharpen scientists' ability to measure brain changes and share findings across studies of diseases like Alzheimer's. The mouse brain atlas combines ...

Creating a virtual brain may sound like a science-fiction nightmare, but for neuroscientists in Japan and at Seattle’s Allen Institute, it’s a big step toward a long-held dream. They say their ...

Analysing a mouse’s brain activity tells scientists where the animal is located and the exact direction it is looking. With further research, the findings could one day help robots navigate ...
