Engineered proteins that can cross the blood–brain barrier represent a reliable and non-invasive way to map gene expression in the brains of large animals. Gene therapy has been successfully used to ...

ME. AT MASS, GENERAL BRIGHAM RESEARCHERS ARE MAPPING ONE OF THE MOST VAST AND MYSTERIOUS LANDSCAPES KNOWN TO SCIENCE A WORLD OF TRILLIONS OF CONNECTIONS. THE HUMAN BRAIN. WE HAVE MAPPED OUR ENTIRE ...

To map connections between neurons, researchers need to be able to generate electrical signals and monitor how they propagate across synapses connecting pairs of neurons. Conventional approaches to ...

A new study has brought scientists one step further in the direction of developing a cure for a brutal group of rare brain disorders known as SYNGAP1-related disorders, or SRDs. Researchers were able ...

This year, the first clinical trial is scheduled for a therapy developed based on research using organoids. This is a ...

For the first time, scientists have mapped how nearly an entire mammalian brain lights up as decisions are made. The massive effort, which tracked single neurons across almost the whole mouse brain, ...
