A brain cap and smart algorithms may one day help paralyzed patients turn thought into movement—no surgery required.

In A Nutshell College football players take hundreds of head hits each season, even without diagnosed concussions. In a small ...

A new AI-assisted brain atlas that can help visualize the human brain in unprecedented detail has been developed by UCL researchers, in a major step forward for neuroscience and neuroimaging.

People age at different rates, partly due to genetics but largely because of lifestyle. A person’s rate of aging can indicate how likely they are to develop age-related disorders, such as dementia.

Levels of iron in the brain could be a warning sign of future Alzheimer’s disease, a new study suggests. High levels of the chemical element have been shown to increase brain toxins and trigger ...

Peering into the human brain has never been easy. For decades, neuroscientists have relied on heavy, expensive machines to measure blood flow and oxygen levels that reveal how the brain works. These ...

By using structural imaging techniques to convert brain scans into "wiring diagrams" of connections between brain regions, the researchers used the structure of these neural networks to reveal the ...

Using machine learning to guide microscopes could reveal greater insights into the brain's connectome and deepen our ...
