Molecular Zip Code Draws Killer T Cells Straight to Brain Tumors Dec. 5, 2024 — Scientists have developed a 'molecular GPS' to guide immune cells into the brain and kill tumors without harming ...

Mice given the treatment had improved recovery from ... Epigenetic Changes Reprogram Astrocytes Into Brain Stem Cells Sep. 4, 2024 — Resting brain stem cells hardly differ from normal astrocytes ...

Now, a recent study from Gladstone Institutes and the regenerative medicine company SanBio offers new hope. Scientists have shown that a stem cell-derived therapy can restore normal brain activity ...

Although neurons are considered the basic units of the brain and nervous system, they do not do all the work. Glia are a non-neuronal category of cells that do not transmit electrical signals but ...

Louis-Jeantet Prizes are awarded to Gilles Laurent, director at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research in Frankfurt and ...

Researchers at California Institute of Technology revealed that the human brain processes information at 10 bits per second, ...

Several remarkable things happened: the gray cortex blushed pink. Brain cells resumed the production of proteins. Neurons began displaying signs of metabolic activity just as living cells do.

Nature asked the world’s largest health-research funders what they are doing to study a life stage experienced by half of humanity. Here is what some of them told us.

Created by Johns Hopkins researchers, EpiScalp could significantly reduce false positives and spare patients from medication side effects, driving restrictions, and other quality-of-life challenges ...

The director of the Max-Planck-Institute for Brain Research has shaped the modern science of neuronal populationsGilles ...

Our February issue covers new Alzheimer’s guidelines, teens’ transcendent thinking, Neandertal DNA in all of us, and more ...

Unlike fMRI, which provides an indirect impression of brain cell activity based on blood flow, electroencephalography (EEG) directly measures electrical activity in the brain. EEG measurements are ...
