UCR scientists create a fully synthetic model for growing brain cells that could allow for animal-free drug testing.

Scientists engineered the first fully synthetic brain tissue model. It’s fully functional brain tissue that they can use to ...

Now, researchers believe that new artificial intelligence (AI) tools could make it easier and faster for doctors to detect those indicators. A team of neurosurgeons and engineers at the University of ...

This test can aid in determining the type of prion disease. Different types of prion disease have different distribution patterns of the abnormal protein. Please note: cortical brain biopsies do not ...

FORT MOORE, Ga. — The testing is simple: It requires only a computer and a mouse with two buttons — labeled “1” and “2” — but Pentagon officials believe it will have a huge impact on the military’s ...
