A 3D model accurately mimicking the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) in a laboratory environment has been successfully developed by research teams led by Professor Jinah Jang from the Departments of ...

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 international research team has provided an unprecedented look at how gene regulation evolves during human brain development, showing how the 3D structure of chromatin—DNA and proteins—plays a ...

A team from the University of California, Riverside has developed the first functional model of brain tissue built without ...

Marimélia Porcionatto is a Full Professor in the Department of Biochemistry at the Paulista School of Medicine (EPM) at the Federal University of São Paulo (Unifesp; Brazil) and Vice-Director of ...

Brain organoids are revolutionising research, but their growing complexity raises unsettling ethical questions.

Bioprinting is a bioengineering technique that utilizes the principles of 3D printing to build 3D tissue-like structures out of bioinks mixed with living cells. First making an appearance in 1988, ...

Johns Hopkins University researchers have grown a novel whole-brain organoid, complete with neural tissues and rudimentary blood vessels—an advance that could usher in a new era of research into ...

Researchers have developed a new artificial intelligence (AI) technique that brings machine vision closer to how the human brain processes images. Called Lp-Convolution, this method improves the ...

Researchers tracked brain activity across 24 hours, showing how shifting neural control centers drive fatigue and how sleep ...
