Mount Sinai and BPGbio scientists uncover novel molecular drivers from live brain samples that direct human brain structure ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in which aging cells change how they function—is associated with human brain ...

Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

Fear has a scent. Here’s how this invisible chemical signal has shaped human perceptions, emotions and survival instincts.

Recent analysis of human brain tissue suggests that a small and often overlooked region deep within the brain may play a central role in bipolar disorder. Researchers found that neurons in the ...

Findings from the Living Brain Project reveal how senescence processes involved in early brain development may also shape brain aging ...

For much of the 20th century, scientists believed that the adult human brain was largely fixed. According to this view, the ...

For the first time, clumps of human cells called organoids were fully integrated with the brains of rats—and influenced their ...

Researchers outline a roadmap for applying transcranial focused ultrasound, a noninvasive technique for stimulating the brain ...

A new comprehensive analysis has revealed that major depressive disorder alters both the physical architecture and the ...
