Scientists have developed a computer-based model that may explain how nerve cells become damaged in ALS, and how best to time ...

M. Carmen Varela, BSc, BA, explains how a novel human organoid model enables large-scale production of PV interneurons.

New research reveals how a class of neurons that help coordinate communication in the brain link up with their target cells, ...

Memory, a fundamental tool for our survival, is closely linked with how we encode, recall, and respond to external stimuli. Over the past decade, extensive research has focused on memory-encoding ...

To expand the understanding of memory, a research team has developed a technology called LCD-eGRASP (local circuit dual-eGRASP) that can label synapses of neural circuits within a specific brain ...

Researchers at the Eli and Edythe Broad Center of Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at UCLA have developed a first-of-its-kind roadmap detailing how stem cells become sensory interneurons - ...

A molecular barcoding tool has been developed to trace the developmental descendants of radial glial cells — the neural progenitors of the human cerebral cortex. The technique shows that these ...
