Lab-grown “reductionist replicas” of the human brain are helping scientists understand fetal development and cognitive ...

Blame cell death and fungi for brain decay, not TikTok. TikTok won't really make your brain rot. That doesn't happen until after death. While most brains rot quickly, researchers have found a ...

Using single-cell RNA sequencing and genetic screening, the researchers identified key surface proteins that mediate ...

Despite the proliferation of productivity tools, performance frameworks, and time management hacks, many leaders still end their days feeling overwhelmed and mentally spent. The cause isn’t always ...

Researchers have synthesized enhanced vitamin K analogues that outperform natural vitamin K in promoting neuron growth. The new compounds, which combine vitamin K with retinoic acid, activate the ...

Neurobiologist Angelo Forli has received the prestigious Career Development Grant from the Giovanni Armenise Harvard Foundation, worth 1 million dollars for a five-year project. The researcher has ...

Harvard University hired a drag performer as a new professor — who is expected to teach a class on TV show “RuPaul’s Drag Race” in the spring semester, the Ivy League school announced over the summer.

A neuron made in the lab now works almost like one in the body. A team of engineers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has announced the creation of an artificial neuron with electrical ...

The White House and Harvard University have struggled to negotiate an end to their monthslong dispute over the administration’s campaign to expunge “woke” ideology from campuses. By Michael C. Bender ...

Once in the brain, lung cancer cells can plug themselves into the electrical circuitry there and grow, a study of mice shows. The results, published September 10 in Nature, highlight the deep and ...

Researchers have shown that a green-Mediterranean diet can help slow brain aging. By analyzing data from the DIRECT PLUS trial, scientists found reduced levels of proteins tied to faster brain decline ...
