A 3D model accurately mimicking the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) in a laboratory environment has been successfully developed by research teams led by Professor Jinah Jang from the Departments of ...

A 3D-printed 'brain phantom' has been developed, which is modeled on the structure of brain fibers and can be imaged using a special variant of magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI). The scientific team ...

University of Missouri researchers are developing new ways to better simulate the complex nature of human brain tissue. For years, scientists have worked to uncover how the brain responds to ...

In a joint project between MedUni Vienna and TU Wien, the world's first 3D-printed "brain phantom" has been developed, which is modeled on the structure of brain fibers and can be imaged using a ...

Scientists have developed the largest and most detailed computational models of rat hippocampal and somatosensory cortex regions to date. They have released these models and the tools for their use to ...

Researchers use a special tool called a microtome to cut sections from a brain preserved in paraffin wax into tiny slivers 20-micromters thick.Image courtesy of Amunts, Ziles, Evans, et. al BigBrain, ...

Brain tumors cannot always be successfully treated with conventional therapies. A team from Empa and the hospital network ...

Indian-origin researcher Dr Kumar Mritunjay has developed a 3D 'mini-brain' on a chip that integrates living neurons with microelectronics, enabling two-way communication between biological tissue and ...

A ground-breaking study shows the most detailed map of a mammal's brain to date. The 3D blueprints display more than two miles of neural wiring, close to 100,000 nerve cells, and about 500 million ...
