Poultry scientists are unraveling the complexities of bird brains and finding less expensive ways to do it. The scientists mapped the intricate neurological pathways that control vision in chickens ...

The brain is an organ made up of a large mass of nerve tissue protected within the skull. It plays a role in just about every major body system. Some of the brain’s main functions include: The ...

Researchers have produced an engineered tissue representing a simplified cerebral cortex by 3D printing human stem cells. When implanted into mouse brain slices, the structures became integrated with ...

After three years of intensive data-gathering and careful drawing, the mapmakers' work was complete. The complex terrain they charted, with all its peaks, valleys and borders, is only about half an ...
