A map of part of a mouse brain, which is expected to be generalisable to people, could help scientists understand behaviours, ...

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

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

Using in-vitro models of a specific type of brain cell, scientists have demonstrated that neurons can transform from one type ...

Neuroscientists have produced the largest wiring diagram and functional map of a mammalian brain to date using tissue from a ...

The team tested the technique by converting mouse skin cells to motor neurons. And sure enough, this resulted in a yield of over 1,000%. The resulting motor neurons were found to produce ...

Researchers from The University of Texas at Arlington and the University of California–San Francisco have used a new brain-mapping technique to identify memory-related brain cells vulnerable to ...
