By crafting an artificial brain-like environment with microscopic nanopillars, researchers have successfully guided neurons ...

A 3D model accurately mimicking the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in a laboratory environment has been successfully developed by ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed.

A paradigm-shifting study from the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) shows an experimental drug, GL-II-73, has the potential to restore memory and cognitive function in a mouse model of ...

Hence, researchers often simulate the brain as a network of coupled neural masses, each described by a mean-field model. These models capture the essential features of neuronal populations while ...

Large language models like ChatGPT display conversational skills, but the problem is they don’t really understand the words ...

Researchers have identified brain circuits disrupted by prenatal alcohol exposure, which may explain the cognitive ...

Using tiny nanopillars, they mimic the soft neural tissue and the brain extracellular matrix fibers. This model provides new insights into how neurons form networks, as well as a novel tool to ...

A research team has identified a critical event driving tumor growth in a type of medulloblastoma -- and a way to block it.

A study led by Dr. Peter Canoll's lab, in collaboration with researchers at Columbia University Irving Medical Center, ...
