University at Albany doctoral student Maria Paredes-Espinosa examines miniature lab-grown hearts under a microscope on Friday at the NY CREATES Albany NanoTech Complex in Albany. Paredes-Espinosa says ...

Mini-brains' grown in the lab allow scientists to study brain wiring without interfering with brains in living people, and ...

Johns Hopkins University researchers have developed a novel whole-brain organoid. This model is unique because it features connected neural tissues from various brain regions and even includes basic ...

Researchers from Johns Hopkins University have used lab-grown 'mini-brains' to identify neural signatures associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

While silicon-based computing is cutting-edge today, human brain-based tech could be on track to dominate the future. Researchers are exploring how brain organoids—tiny clumps of neurons that resemble ...

Scientists who study mental disorders have long faced an inherent obstacle. When they examine a deceased person’s brain, they can’t tell how the brain cells functioned and interacted. And they can’t ...

We love a small fluff baby. And that's one of the reasons why we love a recently published TikTok video. The video comes from TikTok user @yellowlab.maisy and, as the name suggests, features a yellow ...

Though we’ve now been living with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, for close to five years, many aspects of its biology and pathology remain mysterious. This is not helped by the fact that ...

Tiny lab-grown brains are offering an unprecedented look at how schizophrenia and bipolar disorder disrupt neural activity.
