This group of cells forms the cerebral cortex and ensures the functioning ... including the loss of neurons in the upper layers, as well as immature astrocytes and populations of microglia ...

The functioning of the brain relies on the precise organization of neuronal connections. In an article published in ...

The brains of birds and mammals have diverged substantially during the course of evolution. A research team at the Center for Molecular Biology of Heidelberg University has investigated how similar ...

The brains of birds and mammals have diverged substantially during the course of evolution. A research team led by Prof. Dr Henrik Kaessmann at the ...

Using a single-cell sequencing technique, Brazilian researchers have created the first cell atlas of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD), a malformation of the cerebral cortex that leads to drug-resistant ...

The cerebral cortex forms the outer layer of the cerebrum ... more room for neurons—than would a totally smooth layer of brain cells. Beneath the Cortex Buried in the core of the brain are ...

This work provides evidence of the presence of immature neurons in the human brain, specifically in the layer II of the cerebral cortex. Using surgical samples from epileptic patients and post-mortem ...

Finally, whereas in rats and mice DCX-labeled neurons are predominantly present in the SGL and SVZ, with only a few DCX neurons present in piriform cortex ... in layer II, and most of these neurons ...

A new study shows that the cerebral cortex predicts the future by detecting novel stimuli and forming short-term memory ...

The cerebral cortex is the largest part of a mammal's brain, and by some measures the most important. In humans in particular, it's where most things happen-like perception, thinking, memory storage ...

A new study reveals how AI-driven deep learning models can decode the genetic regulatory switches that define brain cell ...
