A team of researchers in Germany has frozen adult mouse brain tissue at cryogenic temperatures and, after thawing it, recorded electrical activity that closely resembled normal function. The work, ...

Humans and many other animals can innately recognize familiar objects in their surroundings, irrespective of the angle they are observed from, changes in lighting or other shifts in the surrounding ...

In a lab far from the woolly mammoth’s icy plains, researchers from Colossal Biosciences have successfully brought a tiny “woolly mouse” to life. Here’s what it could mean for de-extinction. A tiny, ...

Aubrey de Grey describes his plan to get combinations of promising aging damage-repair approaches. Aging is accumulated molecular and cellular damage from metabolism, leading to pathology. He ...

Research in mice identifies brain circuitry that supports certain reward-based decisions. Every day, our brain makes thousands of decisions, big and small. Any of these decisions -- from the least ...

Study in mice offers insights into the brain circuitry underlying certain types of reward-based choices. Researchers identified distinct groups of brain cells activated when animals anticipate a ...
