Last year, scientists developed a technique to make the brain appear transparent, yielding stunning images of the mysterious organ's inner wiring. But until now, many laboratories had trouble using it ...

Innovative technology such as artificial intelligence (AI), brain-computer interfaces and nanotechnology are accelerating neuroscience research in the quest for improving human health and daily lives.

Researchers have developed a neural implant that provides information about activity deep inside the brain while sitting on its surface. The implant is made up of a thin, transparent and flexible ...

Recently we wrote about advanced new brain imaging technology that provides amazing views into how the brain is wired, and how signals travel along those “wires” as synapses fire, send signals out and ...

Researcher Karl Deisseroth has a new way to improve brain imaging scans. The technique, published in the October issue of Scientific American, makes brain cells transparent by removing lipids, which ...

The adult brain is composed of densely interwoven neuronal and vascular networks that are essential for proper function. Understanding the structural organization and dynamic changes of these networks ...
