New evidence shows that precursors of myelin-producing cells — one of the few #brain cell types that continue to be produced ...

Challenging a long-standing assumption regarding the adult brain, recent research has demonstrated that individuals can continue to develop new brain cells into old age. Researchers at Sweden’s ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in ...

Among the newly identified brain cell types were some in the neocortex and the striatum region, which controls movement and certain other functions. Scientists have reached a milestone in an ambitious ...

In experiments with mice, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists report new evidence that precursors of myelin-producing cells - one of the few brain cell types that continue to be produced in the adult ...

In a revealing Genomic Press Interview published today in Genomic Psychiatry , Dr. Maria Margarita Behrens recounts an extraordinary scientific journey that wound through four countries and multiple ...

A large genetic screen has revealed how stem cells transform into brain cells, exposing hundreds of genes that make this ...

Ben Clayton is transforming our understanding of brain health by researching astrocytes—often-overlooked brain cells that play a crucial role in neurological diseases like Parkinson's disease.

New research reveals how a class of neurons that help coordinate communication in the brain link up with their target cells, ...

The next time you reach for a memory or make a quick choice, a storm of tiny signals races through your brain. Scientists can usually see only half of that storm. Now, a new engineered protein finally ...

A protein capable of recording incoming chemical signals of brain cells was engineered by scientists, which could decode the brain.
