Using mathematical analysis of patterns of human and animal cell behavior, scientists say they have developed a computer program that mimics the behavior of such cells in any part of the body. “This is very important for human disease,” says Genevieve Stein-O’Brien, Ph.D.

"Labs like mine, working toward treatments that could transform thousands of lives, are forced to shut down projects, turn away talent, and walk away from cures within reach. It's not abstract. It's not academic. This is real. This is happening now. And it is crushing." tinyurl.com/3vt7wc99

Mice can make insights and clever strategies, new research shows. Brain circuits behind this behavior are remarkably similar to humans—with implications for treating disease. @kishoreneuro.bsky.social www.oneneurojhu.org/...
