Daniele Canzio, PhD, of the Department of Neurology and Balyn Zaro, PhD, of the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry have ...

Can the brain function when its architecture is altered? A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) demonstrates that ...

Using an aging clock, researchers from the University of Cologne have used the Caenorhabditis elegans model organism to demonstrate that nerve cells age differently. They identified both the causes of ...

Your organs are constantly talking to each other in ways we’re only beginning to understand. Tapping into these communication ...

New research shows how some brain cells fight tau buildup in Alzheimer’s, pointing to internal systems that help neurons survive longer.

New experiments reveal how astrocytes tune neuronal activity to modulate our mental and emotional states. The results suggest ...

The first node sits in the peripheral nervous system. Sensory neurons in the vagus nerve detect damage in the heart and send signals upward. The researchers focused on a subset of vagal sensory ...

Researchers have developed a way to grow a highly specialized subset of brain nerve cells that are involved in motor neuron disease and damaged in spinal injuries.

While diet changes have long been credited for long-term health benefits, it's not often for brain health. A new UNC study ...

Knowing which lysosomal proteins are enriched in which brain cell types will help better understand contribution to neurological disorders.

The human brain contains billions of connected neurons that collectively support different mental functions, including the ...

A research team has developed a way to produce a subset of highly specialised brain neurons that centrally degenerate in motor neuron disease and are damaged in spinal cord injury, laying foundations ...
