The cerebral cortex is the largest part of a mammal's brain, and by some measures the most important. In humans in particular, it's where most things happen-like perception, thinking, memory storage ...

The cerebral cortex of your brain is the outermost layer. It's the part of the brain that appears wrinkled because it has a lot of folds. Your cerebral cortex is divided into two hemispheres. Each ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

A recent study published in Nature Communications demonstrated how droplet-based three-dimensional (3D) printing could help fabricate cerebral cortex tissues comprising layer-specific neurons ...

Spastic diplegia cerebral palsy (SDCP) is a form of cerebral palsy that causes muscle stiffness and spasms in a person’s legs and, sometimes, arms. This is due to damage to the motor cortex of the ...

CVI refers to visual impairment resulting from injury to the brain’s visual pathways or visual cortex. Vision in CVI is not simply reduced clarity; rather, it affects how visual information is ...

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 ...
