Scientists have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular 'bridge' complex demonstrate a new level of detail in the ...

The Wistar Institute's Alessandro Gardini, Ph.D., and lab have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular "bridge" ...

Sensory play is more than just fun and games. It's a vital component of childhood development. The rich neural pathways formed through sensory play facilitate learning and growth in all children, ...

How does our brain, which is capable of generating complex thoughts, actions and even self-reflection, grow out of essentially nothing? An experiment in tadpoles, in which an electronic implant was ...

Scientists at the University of Southern California (USC) have developed an organoid model of the human brain that generates granule cells and Purkinje neurons—two major cell types found in the human ...

New research shows that oxytocin, a short protein produced in the brain, drives the process that helps new neurons build connections in the adult brain directly contributing to adaptability and ...

Neurodevelopment involves the brain's formation of systems responsible for learning, memory, social skills, and overall function. Critical neurodevelopmental processes such as neurogenesis, synaptic ...

Cell adhesion molecule L1, a key member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, plays a pivotal role in the development and maintenance of the nervous system. Its functions extend from guiding neuronal ...

Bioengineering researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a soft, thin, stretchable bioelectronic device that can be implanted into a ...

A genome-wide CRISPR study maps 331 genes essential for early brain development, identifying PEDS1 as a new ...

Since 2021, Korean researchers have been providing a simple software development framework to users with relatively limited ...
