A new study has uncovered how antidepressants affect different groups of serotonin-producing brain cells in opposite ways, ...

Diverse high cognitive functions were supported by cellular circuits formed by billion neural cells in different cerebral cortex regions 1,2,3. High-resolution “cytoarchitectural atlas” of the human ...

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are highly stable synthetic organic compounds that are present in air, water, and soil. PCBs have been identified in post-mortem human brains, indicating a possible ...

A new study has uncovered how antidepressants affect different groups of serotonin-producing brain cells in opposite ways, ...

Certain cells in the brain create a nurturing environment, enhancing the health and resilience of their neighbors, while others promote stress and damage. Using spatial transcriptomics and AI, ...

Vizgen, Inc., a leader in spatial multiomics and developer of the MERSCOPE Ultra™ Platform, today announced it will debut a 3D Volumetric Tissue Mapping dataset in neurodegenerative brain tissue using ...

A team of Vanderbilt researchers has released a new benchmarking study that aims to assist scientists in selecting the most effective methods for analyzing spatial transcriptomics (ST) data. ST ...

In the brain, location is everything. And the throngs of cells that live there are nothing without the billions of distinct connections between them. Although scientists can use single-cell ...

This figure shows how the STAIG framework can successfully identify spatial domains by integrating image processing and contrastive learning to analyze spatial transcriptomics data effectively.

Perhaps our most defining characteristic as a species, the six-layered human cortex, hosts billions of neural connections that bestow Homo sapiens with higher-order thinking. But how does this ...
