This could be pivotal to helping people of all ages.

Scientists have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular 'bridge' complex demonstrate a new level of detail in the ...

Researchers from the lab of Richard Simerly have uncovered the first example of activity-dependent development of hypothalamic neural circuitry. The work also suggests a novel role for the hunger ...

Protocadherins, a subfamily within the cadherin superfamily, are fundamental to the precise organisation of neural circuits. They contribute to cell adhesion mechanisms that underlie synaptic ...

The Wistar Institute's Alessandro Gardini, Ph.D., and lab have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular "bridge" ...

Early brain development is a biological black box. While scientists have devised multiple ways to record electrical signals in adult brains, these techniques don’t work for embryos. A team at Harvard ...

A study by BRIC-RGCB scientists has unveiled new insights into brain development and neural stem cell maintenance, ...

Researchers from the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine Basic Sciences have uncovered the first example of activity-dependent development of hypothalamic neural circuitry. The research, led by ...

Axons from AgRP neurons, in red, innervate oxytocin neurons, in green, in the PVH. Neuronal activity of AgRP neurons is required for normal targeting of their axons to oxytocin neurons, as well as for ...
