The brain is the most complex organ in the human body. Different parts of the brain perform a variety of functions, all of ...
Researchers have mapped how "histone bivalency" acts as a molecular clock for brain development. By holding genes in a poised state, this mechanism ensures neurons mature only after completing ...
TalTech scientists in collaboration with researchers from Rockefeller University have described a mechanism that acts like a built-in clock in brain cell development, ensuring that the right genes ...
Over the past decades, computer scientists have introduced numerous artificial intelligence (AI) systems designed to emulate the organization and functioning of networks of neurons in the brain.
Neural organoids have been heralded as having huge potential for advancing our knowledge of the brain in several fields.
Peer-reviewed publication validates the potential of Itay&Beyond's human CNS platform for advanced disease stratification, translational ...
Recent technological advances facilitate the reconstruction of complete brain connectomes in small organisms and partial connectomes in mammals, involving the mapping of the network of neurons and ...
A new study is illuminating how “forever chemicals” can alter our brain cells by impairing the genes that maintain healthy neurons, the cells of our nervous system. Scientists are only beginning to ...
A clearance mechanism involving microglia has been known to relieve neurons of toxic protein aggregates such as those associated with Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. Unfortunately, this ...
