The next surprise was that human organoids just kept growing. Mouse organoids were done with making neurons within nine days.

The potential benefits of organoids for fundamental research and medicine are huge. Efforts to establish proper boundaries ...

Researchers have mapped how "histone bivalency" acts as a molecular clock for brain development. By holding genes in a poised state, this mechanism ensures neurons mature only after completing ...

A new way of mapping activity and connections between different regions of the brain has revealed fresh insights into how higher order functions like language, thought and attention, are organized. A ...
