Every year, tens of thousands of people with signs of Parkinson's disease go unnoticed until the incurable neurodegenerative ...

Scientists have created the most detailed 3D map of a mouse brain ever produced, a milestone that could revolutionize ...

They gave it something much smaller — a tiny stretch of human DNA known as HARE5. And in return, the mouse grew a brain about 6.5% bigger than its peers. The tweak was minuscule.

The Duke Mouse Brain Atlas: MRI and light sheet microscopy stereotaxic atlas of the mouse brain. Sci Adv. 2025;11 (18):eadq8089. doi: 10.1126/sciadv.adq8089 This article has been republished from the ...

Scientists mapped a grain-sized chunk of mouse brain in unprecedented detail, showing how neurons fire in response to what the eyes see. The data reveal over 500 million connections and could be key ...

Let a mouse nose around a house, and it will rapidly find food and form a strategy to return to it without getting caught. Given the same task, an AI would require millions of training examples and ...

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 ...

The 3D blueprints display more than two miles of neural wiring, close to 100,000 nerve cells, and about 500 million synapses — all contained in a piece of mouse brain no bigger than a grain of sand.

The research started at Baylor College of Medicine where scientists used specialized microscopes to record the brain activity from a one cubic millimeter portion of a mouse’s visual cortex while ...

Mouse movies To train the new AI model, the researchers first recorded the brain activity of real mice as they watched movies—made-for-people movies. The films ideally would approximate what the ...

As a proof of principle, they generated a 3D interactive atlas of the brain in both normal mice and mouse models of Alzheimer's and Pompe disease, a rare genetic disorder.

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers of the Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands ...
