Dr. Albert Rhoton of the University of Florida has collected an unparalleled library of brain-anatomy images. Available in 3D online through iTunes University, the images allow surgeons to view ...

A new technique for creating transparent tissue has been developed that can be used to illuminate 3-D brain anatomy at very high resolutions. In recent years, generating see-through tissue--a process ...

The published paper reports on the results of more than 5 years of collaboration and introduces a new instrument that the ...

BraDiPho (Brain Dissection Photogrammetry) is an innovative tool for the study of white matter connections in the human brain ...

Scientists at the RIKEN Brain Science Institute in Japan have developed a new method for creating transparent tissue that can be used to illuminate 3D brain anatomy at high resolutions. Published in ...

The neurons in our brain that underlie thought connect to each other using tiny branch-like structures on their surfaces known as dendritic spines. Now scientists at Columbia's Zuckerman Institute and ...

After three years of intensive data-gathering and careful drawing, the mapmakers' work was complete. The complex terrain they charted, with all its peaks, valleys and borders, is only about half an ...

Zygote Body is a comprehensive and unique way to learn about the human body. The human body is fascinating and complex. Students puzzle over those different bones, blood vessels, muscles, and ...

Researchers have produced an engineered tissue representing a simplified cerebral cortex by 3D printing human stem cells. When implanted into mouse brain slices, the structures became integrated with ...

What just happened? Researchers have reconstructed a minuscule piece of the human brain down to the level of individual synapses, representing a giant leap forward for brain science. And we're not ...
