Scientists have created an incredibly detailed 3D brain map of a fly's brain, and it's probably one of the coolest things that you'll see this year. While it might not be a map of the human brain ...

One seahorse-shaped hippocampus sits deep within each hemisphere of the mammalian brain. In each hippocampus’s CA3 area, humans have about 1.7 million nerve cells called pyramidal cells.

Brain growth slowed down about 300,000 years ago due to energetic and climate pressures, according to a study published in ...

The human brain is so complex that scientific brains have a hard time making sense of it. A piece of neural tissue the size of a grain of sand might be packed with hundreds of thousands of cells ...

Representation of locomotive action affordances in human behavior, brains, and deep neural networks. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2025; 122 (24) DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2414005122 ...
