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

A Japanese research team has successfully reproduced the human neural circuit in vitro using multi-region miniature organs known as assembloids, which are derived from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) ...

Human-accelerated regions (HARs) are sections of the human genome that have accumulated an unusually high level of mutations as humans split away from chimpanzees. Given their rapid evolution, some ...

The Wistar Institute's Alessandro Gardini, Ph.D., and lab have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular "bridge" ...

ORLANDO, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hesperos, a leader in recreating human biology with its’ Human-on-a-Chip ® platform, has announced a breakthrough development of a human induced pluripotent stem cell ...

Vanderbilt researchers, including those from the Vanderbilt Brain Institute, have made significant strides in understanding how the enteric nervous system—sometimes called the "brain" of the gut—forms ...

In the 1999 sci-fi classic The Matrix, “plugging in” symbolized digital enslavement. In 2025, for a paraplegia patient in ...

Sometimes in the rush to explore our interactions with neural nets (often in the form of LLMs) we forget to think about our own operating system and how it works. Of course, scientists did spend a lot ...

Folic acid, also known as vitamin B9, is an important B-vitamin with many vital functions in the human body. It was discovered in the early 1930s when an English scientist isolated a compound from ...
