Neuroscientists want to understand how individual neurons encode information that allows us to distinguish objects, like ...

Australian start-up Cortical Labs and UK’s bit.bio have built CL1 with the aim of creating ‘synthetic biological intelligence’ ...

From the laboratory she directs at King's College London, Beatriz Rico investigates the mechanisms of our interneuronal connectivity. "We need to understand the wiring, what happens when circuits fail ...

Behold, the Cortical Column. A three-dimensional rendering of the mammalian neocortex displays the six cortical layers—from the surface of the brain to the inside. Distinct cytoarchitectural features ...

They successfully recorded neuronal activities in deep brain regions of transgenic mice, observing over 4,500 neurons in both shallow and deep cortical layers. Moreover, DEEPscope enabled whole-brain ...

The research team utilized the system to achieve high-speed 3D observation covering layers of the cerebral cortex in live mice at single-cell resolution. They captured the distinct response patterns ...

In their study, the researchers demonstrated DEEPscope's capability to image entire cortical columns and subcortical structures with single-cell resolution. They successfully recorded neuronal ...

The brain’s cortex, which handles higher cognitive functions in mammals, is split into six distinct physical layers marked by varying cell types, sizes and connections—and new research ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — The brain continues to be a fascinating organ that keeps neuroscientists on its toes. Researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have made a pioneering ...

Throughout the brain's cortex, neurons are arranged in six distinctive layers, which can be readily seen with a microscope. A team of MIT neuroscientists has now found that these layers also show ...
