The key to understanding the drivers of physical and neurological disease lies in part with understanding the microscopic ...

Microscopy continues to transform the life sciences. Here are five recent breakthroughs made possible by the technique.

Using machine learning to guide microscopes could reveal greater insights into the brain's connectome and deepen our ...

A simple light-based method is uncovering hidden fiber networks inside the brain and body, even in tissue slides over 100 years old.

For decades, scientists have struggled to study this moment in humans because of ethical restrictions and limited access to ...

Monsul, MD, and Eva Ann Berkes, MD, today announced growing scientific, medical, and public-policy momentum behind a breakthrough microbiome discovery designed to help defend the human body against ...

The black box of the human brain is starting to open. Although animal models are instrumental in shaping our understanding of the mammalian brain, scarce human data is uncovering important ...

Recent research has confirmed that nanoplastics can cross cellular barriers, including the blood-brain barrier (a highly selective, semi-permeable membrane that protects the brain from harmful ...

Micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs) are everywhere—from the air we breathe to the food we eat—but their impact on human health is not entirely clear. While cell culture and animal studies hint at potential ...
