PLCG2-P522R, a genetic variant that protects against Alzheimer's disease, enhances key functions of immune cells. Read More
Researchers report that, at the molecular levels, aging may have originated at the beginning of the evolution of life. They suggest when it comes to genes, aging may not always be a negative trait, and may help an organism to survive. Read More
Researchers discover a mechanism that may underpin the progression of glioblastoma brain cancer development. Read More
According to a new study, slow wave sleep depends on the activity of calcium inside neurons. Read More
A new study reveals the role circular RNA plays in brain function, including synaptic transmission and sensorimotor gating. Read More
Using CRISPR gene editing technology, researchers target the Shank3 gene in monkey embryos. Research backs previous findings of the importance of the Shank3 gene for brain development and its role in autism. Read More
