This illustration summarizes how integrated spatial transcriptomics, single-cell transcriptomics, single-cell epigenomics, and spatial epigenomics enable multi-dimensional profiling of the tumor ...

A collaborative effort is trying to construct the cell atlas of the developing brains of humans and animal models. Using advanced single-cell and spatial technologies, they mapped how brain cell types ...

An AI-produced rendering shows a map of mouse brain regions, overlaid with network motifs. (UCSF Illustration) Scientists say an artificial intelligence program that they compare to ChatGPT has helped ...

Disrupting maternal gut-immune axis perturbed immune networks in developing mouse brains, revealing potential mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental disorders.

Grid cells are a class of specialized neurons in a brain region called the entorhinal cortex, which is known to support spatial navigation and some memory processes. Past neuroscience studies have ...

The brain is the most complicated organ in the human body. With billions of cells that create trillions of connections to allow an individual to move, think, and remember, many of its innerworkings ...

Our thoughts are specified by our knowledge and plans, yet our cognition can also be fast and flexible in handling new information. How does the well-controlled and yet highly nimble nature of ...

Like the seeds of a forest, a few cells in embryos eventually sprout into an ecosystem of brain cells. Neurons get the most recognition for their computing power. But a host of other cells provides ...

The maternal microbiome and immune system have both independent and synergistic effects on fetal brain health - changes in ...
