Your brain doesn’t glide through life on a smooth, predictable track. New research suggests it changes course in significant, ...

A new study in the lab of Jason Stein, Ph.D., modeled brain development in a dish to identify cells and genes that influence ...

The morphogenesis of brain folding patterns across species is studied by physical gel models, simulations, and a quantitative morphometric analysis.

The claim that the brain, and particularly the frontal lobe, finishes developing at 25 is far less solid than social media ...

Whether it is day or night, routines better support children’s sleep, brain development, and overall physical health so here ...

A microscopic flaw in the brain’s cellular scaffolding can shape brain size for life.

Researchers have built the first-ever molecular atlas of the human brain vasculature at single-cell resolution, spanning from early development to adulthood and through disease stages such as brain ...

Despite hopes that early nutrition could enhance brain growth in preterm infants, a new study finds no significant impact—challenging assumptions about feeding strategies in neonatal care. Study: ...

Physical gel models and numerical simulations have been created to study ferret brain gyrification and cortical malformations, while comparisons with human phenotypes aim to link genetics and brain ...

Breastfeeding's neurocognitive benefits on infants and children are generally supported, although some inconsistencies remain in the scientific literature. However, its impacts on later-stage ...
