Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

A sweeping genetic screen reveals how the brain is built and exposes a hidden gene behind a newly discovered childhood brain ...

An international research team identified hundreds of genes essential for the development of brain cells, including one gene ...

The 25 number became popular off the back of brain imaging studies from the late 1990s and early 2000s. These studies often tracked changes through childhood and adolescence and showed that the brain ...

By editing thousands of genes in mouse stem cells, the scientists identified a list of over 300 that are crucial for neural differentiation.

Disrupting maternal gut-immune axis perturbed immune networks in developing mouse brains, revealing potential mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental disorders.

New research shows gut bacteria can directly influence how the brain develops and functions. When scientists transferred ...

The discovery could pave the way for new treatments, improved risk prediction, and earlier intervention for brain metastases.

Prolonged exposure to poor air quality, especially high PM2.5 levels, can cause lasting neurological damage, particularly in developing brains. Experts warn that exposure during pregnancy and early ...

The maternal microbiome and immune system have both independent and synergistic effects on fetal brain health—changes in the ...

When a person suffers a stroke, physicians must restore blood flow to the brain as quickly as possible to save their life.

A study reveals our brain development changes at ages 9, 32, 66 and 83.
