Using cortical organoids from individuals with autism, researchers tracked gene activity over development. Early ...

Researchers at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) have identified a mechanism that protects the female ...

Scientists at Keck Medicine of USC are testing an experimental stem cell therapy that aims to restore the brain’s ability to ...

Scientists rebuilt human brain circuits in the lab and discovered that the thalamus acts as a central organizer of cortical wiring. The findings offer new insight into how brain networks form and why ...

Scientists at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, (NUS Medicine), have identified a molecular switch that helps aging brains ...

Stem cells in the brain, called neural stem cells (NSCs), have the ability to proliferate, differentiate, and undergo a process of cell death. Most of the NSCs in our brains exist in a dormant state, ...

An international research team has provided an unprecedented look at how gene regulation evolves during human brain development, showing how the 3D structure of chromatin—DNA and proteins—plays a ...

A mechanism identified by a team from the Montreal Clinical Research Institute explains how the human brain reaches its ...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny bubbles released by cells, acting as cargo vessels through which cells exchange signals and thus communicate. A paper has demonstrated that this form of cellular ...

Oxygen deprivation around birth can lead to brain damage in babies, with far-reaching consequences. A new stem cell treatment administered via nasal drops is showing promising results. In a safety ...
