UCR scientists create a fully synthetic model for growing brain cells that could allow for animal-free drug testing.

Researchers have created functional brain-like tissue without relying on any animal-derived materials, marking a major step toward more ethical and reproducible neurological research.

A specialized model used by researchers is becoming a valuable tool for studying human brain development, diseases and potential treatments, according to a team of scientists at Rutgers University-New ...

In the Living Brain Project, researchers leveraged deep brain stimulation surgeries to compare the brains of the living to those of the dead.

Studies of animal ethology began long ago, but today’s popular animal cognition books largely began with Stanley Coren in 1994, the year he published The Intelligence of Dogs. Coren had been a highly ...
