This isn’t the first brain cell atlas, and it won’t be the last. But it is incredibly detailed. The 21-study collection reports the findings of the BRAIN Initiative’s last five-year funding ...

Scientists build the largest-ever atlas of over 3,000 cells in the human brain : Shots - Health News A new atlas of the human brain could help explain abilities like language – and ...

Brain dynamics and cognition share genetic roots. Criticality may guide future brain health research. A recent study published on June 24 in PNAS presents strong evidence that brain criticality—the de ...

The challenge is that making a single, comprehensive atlas of the human brain across all regions and stages of development is nearly impossible—there's just too much complexity.

The human brain has roughly 171 billion cells, which makes it a herculean task to categorize them all. Scientists collected samples from different parts of the brain and have identified 3,000 ...

Using brain gene expression maps from the Allen Human Brain Atlas, the researchers tested the degree to which Alzheimer’s risk genes explain the patterns of both actual and residual tau. This allowed ...

Fred Hutch researchers have created a gene-expression map of glial cells of the tiny worm, C. elegans, adding the missing ...

It's been recognized for some time that Alzheimer's disease affects brain regions differently and that tau — a protein known ...
