A new study by researchers at Wake Forest University School of Medicine has identified a promising strategy to treat brain ...

Adults whose brains still have strong neuron production seem to have better memory and cognitive function than do those in ...

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

A groundbreaking clinical trial is testing whether specially engineered stem cells can help the brain restore its own dopamine production in people with Parkinson’s disease. Because the condition is ...

Neuroscientists propose a new theory of brain development where cells organize based on lineage rather than long-range ...

Scientists identified two types of brain cells, neurons and microglia, that are altered in people with depression. Through genomic mapping of post-mortem brain tissue, they found major differences in ...

Researchers propose that brain cells inherit positional cues from their lineage and cluster near related cells to form large-scale structure. Mouse and zebrafish experiments support the model, with ...

Loss and dysfunction of synapses have been linked to age-related cognitive decline and observed in Alzheimer's and other ...

Researchers at UCLA Health and UC San Francisco have identified a specific molecular mechanism that explains why certain ...
