In contrast, the illustration-heavy Comprehensive Cellular-Resolution Atlas of the Adult Human Brain takes up pretty much all of the latest issue of the Journal of Comparative Neurology. “It’s ...

Researchers have mapped the more than 500,000 connections in the intricate brain of a fruit fly larva. This map, they say, could help scientists figure out how learning changes the human brain, too.

A scientific team supported in part by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has developed a new, ultra-high-resolution ...

The anatomy of the brain comes to life in these 3D images, revealing bright blue-and-red blood vessels, ... Exploring the human brain (Image credit: Albert L. Rhoton Jr., MD, 2007.) ...

In the new study, the researchers decided to test their theory in a gel replica that more accurately reflected human brain anatomy. In the womb, the brain of a fetus starts out smooth, but between ...

Over 100 hours of scanning has yielded a 3-D picture of the whole human brain that’s more detailed than ever before. The new view, enabled by a powerful MRI, has the resolution potentially to ...

Scientists mapped the 548,000 connections in the brain of a fruit fly larva, but they're far from repeating the feat with a grown fruit fly. (Story aired on All Things Considered on Feb. 9, 2023.) ...

The scientists identified cortical networks associated with the human medial temporal lobe that were unknown to previous memory research. Credit: Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain ...

No technology allows for imaging whole human brain anatomy at subcellular resolution without first slicing it because it is very thick (it's 3,000 times the volume of a mouse brain) and opaque.
