Brain organoids can be a good step forward, assuming they are grown from induced human pluripotent stem cells. That allows us to sidestep ethical concerns about the use of human embryos, thereby ...

Artificial intelligence systems designed to physically imitate natural brains can simulate human brain activity before being trained, according to new research from Johns Hopkins University. “The work ...

When David Luke committed to studying psychedelics and parapsychology, it felt like double career suicide. Today, elite ...

After multiple brain bleeds almost killed Greg Morrison and damaged his skull, doctors 3D-printed a implant to save his life.

In a little over ten years, organoid models—miniature, lab-grown clusters of cells that imitate real organs—have transformed how we study human development and disease while accelerating drug ...

Every clonal raider ant lives a nearly identical life. Each new generation of these blind, queenless ants is born at the same ...

More than a decade after the first Neanderthal genome was sequenced, scientists are still working to understand how ...

An international team led by the University of Michigan has introduced new methods that reveal which regions of the brain were active throughout the day with single-cell resolution.

The Festival of Genomics and Biodata is just around the corner, and we’ve had the opportunity to sit down with […] ...
