Brain samples contained 10 times more microplastics than other organs. The brain may contain higher -- and more significant -- amounts of microplastics than other organs in the body, according to ...

A research team led by Shujia Zhu from the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ (CAS) Center for Excellence in Brain Science and Intelligence Technology and Yang Li from the Shanghai Institute of Materia ...

Hence, researchers often simulate the brain as a network of coupled neural masses, each described by a mean-field model. These models capture the essential features of neuronal populations while ...

Cognitively normal human brain samples collected at autopsy in early 2024 contained more tiny shards of plastic than samples collected eight years prior, according to a new study. Overall ...

In his book The Mathematical Universe, mathematician William Dunham wrote of John Venn’s namesake legacy, the Venn diagram, “No one in the long history of mathematics ever became better known ...

A man with paralysis who had electrodes implanted in his brain can pilot a virtual drone through an obstacle course simply by imagining moving his fingers. His brain signals are interpreted by an ...

They removed a slaughterhouse pig’s brain from its head and deprived it of oxygen at room temperature for four hours. Then, they hooked it up to their resuscitation machine and revived it—to ...
