For over 100 years, scientists have agreed that discrete collections of brain cells fire off signals to other brain areas through a series of interconnected fibers. In a new study, researchers applied ...

Researchers have mapped the more than 500,000 connections in the intricate brain of a fruit fly larva. This map, they say, could help scientists figure out how learning changes the human brain, too.

Hormone levels fluctuate like the tides, ebbing and flowing according to carefully orchestrated cycles. These hormones not only influence the body, but can cross into the brain and shape the behavior ...

Researchers from Harvard University and Google have unveiled an intricate wiring diagram of the human brain from a tiny piece of cerebral cortex tissue. The map details 57,000 cells and 150 ...

Scientists have created an incredibly detailed 3D brain map that you can zoom into like you're looking at Google Maps.
