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

A breakthrough in neuromorphic computing could lower the energy consumption of chips and accelerate progress toward artificial general intelligence (AGI). Researchers from the USC Viterbi School of En ...

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

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

A new kind of computer model--grounded in real biology--helps reveal how the brain both adapts and misfires, laying the groundwork for more precise treatments for mental health disorders.

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 ...
