A sheep brain is about the size of a human fist and is squishy like Jell-O. In some ways, a sheep brain is very similar to a human brain. In other ways, it is quite different. I learned about ...

It is not only the heart that has chambers - the brain does, too. Its four ventricles are connected to the spinal canal and filled with a clear liquid called cerebrospinal fluid, which removes ...

Enlarged ventricles in the brains of people with multiple sclerosis were previously considered a sign of tissue loss. But a team at the MDC and ECRC demonstrated that this expansion often recedes.

The researchers then conducted experiments in large animal models, specifically sheep, to validate ... delivered and guided into the ventricular spaces and brain surface for electrical stimulation.

Hair-like cilia maintain the circulation of cerebrospinal fluid within the ventricles of the brain. This circulating fluid is important for nerve cell development and for maintaining brain function.

Their measurements of the brain waves of sheep sedated by the drug may explain the out-of-body experience and state of complete oblivion it can cause. Researchers have identified two brain ...

At the brain’s center sit four cavities — or ventricles — brimming with liquid that cushions the organ and clears out waste. But with little gravity in space, fluids accumulate in an ...
