New findings from Karolinska Institutet reveal how the gene HNRNPU coordinates several fundamental molecular processes during ...

There’s a lot to love about brains. They are arguably the most complex organ in the entire human body. 86 billion neurons send electrical and chemical signals back and forth within your brain to ...

Newborn finger proportions may reflect early hormone exposure and could be linked to differences in early brain growth.

Neuromorphic computers modeled after the human brain can now solve the complex equations behind physics simulations — something once thought possible only with energy-hungry supercomputers. The ...

Computer programming powers modern society and enabled the artificial intelligence revolution, but little is known about how our brains learn this essential skill. To help answer that question, Johns ...

Human brain development begins during gestation and continues postnatally through old age. The brain undergoes profound changes in macrostructure and microstructure underpinned by numerous cellular ...

New research suggests that hormones before birth may have played a role in the development of the human brain.

Neural tissue engineering aims to mimic the brain's complex environment, the extracellular matrix, which supports nerve cell growth, development, and proper connectivity. This environment is carefully ...
