Understanding how a healthy brain works can provide insight into how it fails, too. Scientists hope that studying organoids derived from humans with neurodevelopmental disorders — particularly ...

Scientists have advanced human-animal chimera research by successfully growing human cells within the organs of mice. This development could bring experts closer to the goal of custom-growing human ...

When laboratory mice step out of their plastic cages and into real soil, their behavior changes so dramatically that it forces a rethink of what stress, health and even “normal” really mean. The story ...

Mice turning tiny steering wheels to move shapes on a screen have helped scientists produce the first brain-wide map of decision-making at single-cell resolution in a mammal. For decades, most ...

Scientists have identified a protein that switches brain aging on and off in mice. The findings were published in Nature Aging and may pave the way for new treatments for cognitive decline. Knowing ...
