There, those reflected wavelengths are transformed into electrical signals to be interpreted by our brain. So we don’t really “see” colour, but reflected light, as interpreted in our brain.

The brain is the most complex organ ever created. Its functions are supported by a network of tens of billions of densely packed neurons, with trillions of connections exchanging information and ...

Researchers say they have mapped more than 200,000 cells in a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and have traced how they're ...

From a tiny sample of tissue no larger than a grain of sand, scientists have come within reach of a goal once thought ...

This monumental effort represents the most detailed wiring diagram of a mammal brain ever, and it holds important implications for studying brain disorders in humans. “It definitely inspires a ...

Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a ...

In 1979, famed molecular biologist, Francis Crick, stated that it would be "[impossible] to create an exact wiring diagram for a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and the way all its neurons are ...
