For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international ...

Scientists have identified a previously unknown type of neural stem cell (pNSC) that exists outside the brain and spinal cord ...

Researchers have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed in an embryo. By labeling stem cells with a genetic 'barcode', they have been able to follow the ...

Complex neural circuits likely arose independently in birds and mammals, suggesting that vertebrates evolved intelligence ...

The identification of peripheral neural stem cells could transform the treatment of Parkinson's disease and spinal cord ...

Sandra Siegert and her research group at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) focus on these microglia and their interplay with neurons during embryonic development. In their latest ...

In the developing brain, neurons must navigate through complex and often crowded tissue to reach their final ...

Unexplained itching with no visible rash is more common than you think. Learn how your brain and nerves play a role in the ...

The "Human Organoids Market by Type (Brain Organoids, Heart Organoids, Intestinal Organoids), Source (Adult Stem Cells, Embryonic Tissue, Pluripotent Stem Cells), Technology, Application, End Use - ...

To test whether the neurons were functional, the researchers injected them into the brains of rats treated with a neurotoxin ...

Pregnancy loss affects millions, with 10–15% of pregnancies ending in miscarriage. Knowing the causes can help reduce self-blame.
