A new drug-free, minimally invasive intervention targets the root cause of progressive loss of neural function in spinal muscle atrophy (SMA), an inherited neuromuscular disease. An intervention, ...

Researchers identified DMTF1 as a key transcription factor driving neural stem cell regeneration during aging. The study ...

Researchers at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine), have found that a key ...

In a world-first breakthrough, researchers have used an epilepsy-like disease model in a laboratory dish and showed that improved information processing and neural function can be achieved using a ...

Scientists found our brain may organize behavior by activity patterns rather than fixed regions, reshaping how brain control ...

A Japanese research team has successfully reproduced the human neural circuit in vitro using multi-region miniature organs known as assembloids, which are derived from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) ...

The human brain is complex. Understanding deep brain function usually requires the insertion of probes that frequently result ...

Depression, a common yet complex mental health issue, affects millions worldwide. Despite its prevalence and long clinical history, treating depression remains fraught with challenges. A diagnosis of ...
