Tiny lab-grown brains are offering an unprecedented look at how schizophrenia and bipolar disorder disrupt neural activity. Researchers found distinct electrical firing patterns that could identify ...

Yale School of Medicine (YSM) scientists have discovered a molecular difference in the brains of autistic people compared to their neurotypical counterparts. Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition ...

Researchers used miniature human brains grown in the lab to uncover why certain genetic mutations lead to abnormally small brains. Changes in actin disrupted the orientation of early brain cell ...

Young minds are easily molded. Each new experience rewires a child's brain circuitry, adding and removing synaptic connections between neurons. These wiring patterns become more stable with age, but ...

MacPherson struts are fairly common in modern cars, particularly in front-wheel-drive formats. So why is this specific independent suspension setup so popular? As is the case with many things ...

Anyone who grew up in the 90s will probably remember the thrill of racing Rainbow Road in Mario Kart or the shock of discovering Pokémon Red’s hidden secrets without a guidebook. Those games came in ...

CHICAGO (WLS) -- There is a new and major push to understand the level of microplastics in drinking water in Chicago and throughout the country. Politicians, advocacy groups, and governors, including ...

New research now suggests that our brains are still in the teenage phase until we “peak” in our early thirties. Researchers from the University of Cambridge looked at scans from around 4,000 people up ...

Paul and Earl Hudson were born to a Jamaican mother and an American father who worked as a mechanic for the U.S. Air Force, and they moved all over the country before settling down in Washington, D.C.

The explosive power of D.C. punk rockers Bad Brains is legendary, and newly discovered live recordings from 45 years ago are adding to the legend. In a full-circle moment, the soon-to-be released ...

As we age, the human brain rewires itself. The process happens in distinct phases, or “epochs,” according to new research, as the structure of our neural networks changes and our brains reconfigure ...

Turns out that we’ve all got a little Taylor Swift in us. Our brains host their own Eras Tour — just without the elaborate costume changes. New research suggests that our brains experience major ...
