Researchers report they have successfully developed 'mini-brains' made up of the many neurons and cells in the human brain. The mini brains could allow for better research and reduce the need for animal testing.
Scripps researchers have uncovered the process that helps control neuron growth.
A new brain wiring map reconstructs the entire shape and position of more than 300 neurons in the mouse brain.
Researchers have developed a 3D printed guide that helps regrow neurons and restore both sensory and motor function following complex nerve injury.
A new imaging technique is allowing researchers to gain insights into structures of neural networks.
Researchers have succeeded in comprehensively imaging a potion of a mouse brain at the nanoscale level.
Axon myelination is significantly disrupted in patients with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers also found brain cells of men and women vary significantly in how their genes respond to the neurodegenerative disease.
Renewed, thin myelin sheaths are sufficient to help restore nervous system impairments in diseases like multiple sclerosis, a new study in PNAS reports.
Researchers have identified a new mechanism for influencing ion channels in epilepsy.
A new study reports on how dopamine can regulate itself.
A new study reports a gene expressed in the amygdala plays a crucial role in coordinating axon growth and development.
Researchers report Rolofylline could help alleviate learning and memory problems associated with aggregating Tau proteins.
