Making two different changes to a single messenger protein, researchers were able to inhibit lung cancer growth and promote neurogenesis.
MIT researchers have developed a soft, flexible, 3D printed neural implants that can conform to the contours of the brain. The implant can monitor neural activity over long periods of time, without aggravating surrounding tissue.
A new quantum sensor is able to automatically receive hydrogen when placed beneath a brain slice. Researchers say this could be the first step in creating a pathway that builds a computer device to store and transfer real memories, in essence, allowing for the 'upload' of memory.
Researchers have successfully reduced some symptoms associated with fragile X syndrome in mice with the help of CRISPR-Cas 9 gene editing.
Mixing together human corneal stromal cells with alginate and collagen to make a bioink, researchers have successfully created 3D printed human corneas.
Researchers have developed a new method of reducing the time it takes to grow mini brain models in the lab. This may accelerate research into diseases and injury that affect the nervous system.
Researchers have rewired the neural circuits of one species and given its connections to a new species. The study answers a number of questions about evolution of neural circuits and behavior.
Researchers have come up with a new, noninvasive method of stimulating areas deep within the brain by using electrodes placed on the scalp.
New technology could help with the development for neuroprosthetic devices.
