Understanding the shape or morphology of neurons and mapping the tree-like branches via which they receive signals from other ...

Scientists at the Swiss Light Source SLS have succeeded in mapping a piece of brain tissue in 3D at unprecedented resolution using X-rays, non-destructively. The breakthrough overcomes a long-standing ...

What just happened? Researchers have reconstructed a minuscule piece of the human brain down to the level of individual synapses, representing a giant leap forward for brain science. And we're not ...

The devices could help scientists probe subcellular regions of the brain and possibly treat disease. Wearable devices like smart watches and fitness trackers help us measure and learn from physical ...
