“It is no use asking for the impossible, such as, say, the exact wiring diagram for a cubic millimeter of brain tissue and the way all its neurons are firing,” Crick wrote in Scientific America ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A comprehensive wiring diagram and functional map of a mouse brain's visual cortex, the largest to date, has been created from a cubic millimeter of tissue. This ...

WASHINGTON, April 9 (Reuters) - Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a part of a mouse's cerebral cortex ...

ECESSITY is indeed the mother of invention, as witnessed in Gilgit-Baltistan. In these areas, where climate change has dramatically reduced snowfall and disrupted traditional water cycles, farmers are ...

These large predators were lost during the Late Pleistocene extinctions that eliminated many large land mammals from the Americas near the end of the most recent glaciation. Now, in a coordinated ...

The course also has relevance for Quaternary geology. The course will give an insight into modern research methods, including field methods, numerical landscape modelling and theoretical approaches to ...

Nevertheless, the seasonal melting and freezing of this ice still impacts the Martian environment and offers clues about glacial activity in the past. In a recent paper, a team of scientists from ...

China is staring at a water crisis in the mid-to-long term after the latest climate data showed a rapidly depleting glacial count. As many as 7,000 glaciers have disappeared completely ...

Glaciers around the world are disappearing at an unprecedented rate, with the last three years witnessing the most significant loss of glacial mass on record. The report warns that as mountain ...

These strata were laid down on the seafloor over 440 million years ago at a time when a devastating glaciation had wiped out about 85% of Earth's species—one of the big five mass extinctions.

A team led by Brazilian researchers carried out a 70-day expedition around Antarctica to understand the melting rate of glacial ice and to see how the region is reacting to global warming.
