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.
Researchers have derived a new method for deriving astrocytes from stem cells, opening the door to new research into neuroinflammatory diseases.
Researchers successfully turned skin cells from Parkinson's patients into dopaminergic neurons by introducing a combination of neural-inducing genes into the skin cells.
Study shows how ALS may impact neurons as they mature.
Researchers have developed a technique to yield neurons which resemble those found in the brains of old people. They believe this can help with future research for age related neurological diseases, such as Alzheimer's.
Study finds allele-specific open chromatin variants are likely to be linked to several neuropsychiatric traits and illnesses, including schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
Researchers have succeeded in identifying neurons that secrete the substance responsible for amyloid plaque build-up in the brains of Alzheimer's patients.
A new method for obtaining mature neuronal cells from reprogrammed skin cells allows researchers to safely and effectively study diseases such as schizophrenia and autism.
A new study tracks the development of astrocytes derived from human cortical spheroids. Researchers report hCSs grown astrocytes develop at the same rate as those in the human brain.
Atypical brain development begins at the very earliest stages of brain organization, at the level of individual neurons.
Researchers present a new therapeutic strategy that could help patients with Alzheimer's disease.
Researchers have developed a new technology in order to regenerate functional neurons after brain injury.
