Two new resources may aid the study of synapses, the junctions between neurons.

A new online tool maps the shape and location of neurons in the larval zebrafish brain.

A new method enables researchers to test algorithms for spotting genes that contribute to a trait or condition.

A new system enables researchers to automatically track the social behavior of up to four mice for days at a time.

A new tool calculates the chances of having a seizure in pregnant women who have epilepsy.

A novel cell culture device enables researchers to grow bundles of nerve fibers from stem cells, mimicking the tissue that connects distant parts of the brain.

New versions of the DNA editor CRISPR enable scientists to turn off specific genes in rats, detect mutations in human tissue and delete segments of the genome.

A new method restores blood flow and some functions in pig brains four hours after the animals have died.

An array of minute beads enables researchers to build precise maps of gene expression in the brain.
