The brain is a complicated network of connections and functions, but its inner machinations remain an enigma. In a huge collaborative effort, researchers profiled millions of cells to chart a cellular ...

This map took more than three years to create, but technology and methodological improvements could speed up the process - as they did for genome sequencing throughout the late 20th century ...

This week, an international team led by Columbia University, MIT, and Harvard sought to map the entire process. Analyzing 437 donated brains from aging people—some with Alzheimer’s, others not—they ...

In a scientific first, researchers from Vanderbilt University and the University of California, San Diego, have generated a high-resolution metabolic "map" of how cells orchestrate glucose processing, ...

It’s been more than two decades since scientists finished sequencing the human genome, providing a comprehensive map of human biology that has since accelerated progress in disease research and ...
