Researchers have produced a full map of an adult fruit fly's brain cells This map could help us understand how our own minds ...

2024 saw the completion of several cellular-resolution brain maps, including the entire fly brain and a comprehensive connections map of a cubic centimeter of human brain. 2025 began with the addition ...

“The mapping of the fly brain is really remarkable and will help us get a real grasp of how our own brains work.” We have a million times as many brain cells, or neurons, than the fruit fly ...

Detailed mapping of 1.2 million brain cells has revealed that not all cell types age in the same way and that some – found in a specific ‘hot spot’ – are more sensitive to the aging process. It opens ...

By tracking where the virus ends up, the researchers could pinpoint which regions of the brain were connected to these interneurons. 3D map allows researchers to visualize connections The ...

"It's the first detailed map of the human brain across gestation," Emily Jacobs, study author and neuroscientist, from the University of California, Santa Barbara, says. "We've never witnessed the ...

MIT researchers reveal that sleep is crucial for the brain to form coherent cognitive maps from spatial memories.

Scientists at the Allen Institute have made groundbreaking discoveries about how the brain changes as it ages. By studying ...
