Researchers have used human neural stem cells to 3D print functional brain tissue that mimics the architecture of the cerebral cortex, the brain’s outermost layer. The breakthrough technique has the ...

In an article published in Advanced Science, the researchers identify how neural stem cells in preterm infants are injured following cerebral hemorrhage. We have managed to create a model where we can ...

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

BigBrain, a 3D digital reconstruction of a human brain, provides a first-ever high resolution view of the inner workings of the human brain that could lead to better understanding of how we think, ...

Microscopy image of a human stem cell-derived hippocampal organoid. When the tissue carries an epilepsy-causing variant in the SCN8A gene, inhibitory neurons (seen in red) are disrupted, and ...

Researchers have used a novel technique to 3D print brain tissue whose cells developed into functional neurons that communicated with each other in a matter of weeks. They say the approach could be ...
