Much as a pilot might practice maneuvers in a flight simulator, scientists might soon be able to perform experiments on a realistic simulation of the mouse brain. In a new study, Stanford Medicine ...

In a massive scientific effort, hundreds of researchers have helped to map the connections between hundreds of thousands of neurons in the mouse brain and then overlayed their firing patterns in ...

WASHINGTON, April 9 (Reuters) - Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a part of a mouse's cerebral cortex involved ...

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 ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Scientists have achieved a feat once believed impossible, constructing the largest functional map of a brain to date, which they ...

Scientists have successfully reconstructed videos purely from the brain activity of mice, showing what the mice were seeing, in a new study led by University College London (UCL) researchers. The ...

Vision shapes behavior, and a new study by MIT neuroscientists finds behavior and internal states shape vision. The research, published in Neuron, finds in mice that, via specific circuits, the ...

Researchers have discovered a new way that brain plasticity is controlled in early life, offering insight into the ...

Researchers at MIT found that roughly a quarter to a third of all synapses in the adult mouse cortex are functionally silent, ...

This image shows a subset of more than 1,000 of the 120,000 brain cells reconstructed in the MICRONS project. Each reconstructed neuron is a different random color. It is meant as a symbolic ...
