A newly discovered mechanism that protects nerve cells could have important implications for understanding and treating mental illness.

Just a few weeks after conception, stem cells are already orchestrating the future structure of the human brain. A new Yale-led study shows that, early in development, molecular “traffic cops” known ...

Spread the loveIn a groundbreaking study, researchers have unveiled a crucial mechanism that demonstrates how the brain actively wires itself, influenced by mechanical forces within its environment.

Northeastern University scientists have discovered that a protein in the human brain could potentially be used to grow new neurons in the lab and enhance brain processes affected by aging or ...

A new study led by scientists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and INSERM identified genes essential for turning embryonic stem cells into brain cells, including a gene linked to a previously ...

In a recent study published in Nature, researchers investigate chromatin conformational and epigenomic reorganization during the development of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and hippocampus (HPC). The ...

This article describes an automated brain organoid creation workflow using the CellXpress.ai system, beginning with iPSCs and ...

A research team led by Prof. XU Zhiheng from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has identified Tapt1, together with its partner Suco, as important ...

The human brain, like the brain of other mammals, is known to start developing before birth, via a coordinated sequence of molecular and cellular processes. Neuroscience studies have found that the ...
