Researchers catalogue more than 3,000 different types of cell in our most complex organ. The enormous cell atlas offers a detailed snapshot of the most complex known organ. “It’s highly significant,” ...

Researchers identified some 3,300 types of brain cells, an order of magnitude more than was previously known, and have only a dim notion of what most of them do. By Carl Zimmer An international team ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far surpassing previous efforts that produced only a few dozen. By ...

Scientists just unveiled the largest and most detailed "atlas" of the human brain ever created. It details the arrangement and inner workings of 3,300 types of brain cells, only a fraction of which ...

Researchers have uncovered how different types of brain cells work together to form large-scale functional networks in the human brain -- interconnected systems that support everything from sensory ...

Brain cancer is rare. Some forms are particularly uncommon, including choroid plexus tumors, pineal tumors, and hemangiomas. Brain cancers occur when an atypical group of cells in the brain ...

They created a library of the different electrical signatures for each type of neuron, which then allowed them to train an AI algorithm that can automatically recognise five different types of neurons ...

We use the word 'love' in a bewildering range of contexts - from sexual adoration to parental love or the love of nature. Now, more comprehensive imaging of the brain may shed light on why we use the ...
