MIT scientists have developed a new 3D human brain tissue model that could change how researchers study neurological diseases. The platform, called Multicellular Integrated Brains or miBrains, ...

Jennifer Munson’s decade-long study in Roanoke reveals that chemo drugs damage the brain’s waste-clearing vessels — a breakthrough that could lead to treatments for “chemo brain” and other ...

Researchers have built a 3D human blood-brain barrier in the lab and discovered a key role of brain pericytes in cerebral ...

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

An early-stage study has found that a common chemotherapy drug disrupts lymphatic cells in the tissue surrounding the brain.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) remains a major unmet medical challenge, often resulting in permanent paralysis and disability with ...

For the first time, a lab-grown brain-computer system has demonstrated that human neurons living and evolving in an artificial system respond to medication by learning, in real time, in a game-like ...

The human brain can do many amazing things, but self-repair is not one of its repertoire of abilities. Once neurons die—from ...

For many heartbreaking diseases of the brain — dementia, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and others — doctors can only treat the symptoms. Medical science does not have a cure. Why? Because it’s difficult to ...

What if the future of artificial intelligence didn’t hinge on size but on ingenuity? In a world dominated by massive transformer models boasting hundreds of billions of parameters, the HRM 27M AI ...
