Neurons, the uber-connected nerve cells that act as a main switchboard for the brain, are central to some incredibly ...

Artificial neural networks built with biological cells promises massive energy savings.

Early in development, a group of migrating cells called cranial neural crest cells go on to form many different parts of the face, including the nose, jaw, ears, and throat. To build these structures ...

All cells, whether big or small, short or long, rely on proteins to function properly. In most cells, transporting these ...

In a condition known as "IgLON5 encephalitis," the immune system mistakenly attacks cells in the brain. This leads to brain ...

Researchers develop Neuroplex, a pipeline combining miniscopes and confocal imaging to track 9 distinct neuron types in behaving mice.

A new study reveals how transposable elements (TEs) expanded gene regulation during brain evolution, shaping modern neural ...

The cells with electrophysiological activity obtained at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) are opening up new avenues for the study of neurodegenerative diseases and the development of ...
