A team of neuroscientists in Australia has found that restoring copper levels in the brain dramatically reduced Parkinson-like damage in mice. The approach restored a protein’s function, and the same ...

The findings of two recent studies give hope that the disease could one day be reversed in humans—but experts warn that this ...

The researchers used brain scans to investigate which regions of the mice’s brains respond to food odours, and were able to identify a new group of nerve cells in the medial septum of the brain. These ...

And in humans? The human brain contains the same group of nerve cells as the mouse, but it is not yet known whether they also respond to food odors.

Absence of the septum pellucidum is a brain abnormality that happens before birth. Learn the symptoms, causes, and more.

From a cubic millimeter of brain tissue, scientists have constructed a precise, 3D map of the activity in a mouse’s brain, detailing 84,000 neurons and more than 500 million synapses.

Thanks to a mouse watching clips from The Matrix, scientists have created the largest functional map of a brain to date, a diagram of the wiring connecting 84,000 neurons.

Scientists say the map of a speck of a mouse's brain could be as transformative as the Human Genome Project. Here's what to know.

Scientists achieved “a milestone” by charting the activity and structure of 200,000 cells in a mouse brain and their 523 million connections.

Slices of mouse brain that were kept at -150°C for up to a week have shown near-normal electrical activity after being warmed up. The results could take us a step closer towards cooling and ...
