In a bid to better understand, and potentially treat, a host of conditions that affect early cognition, neurodevelopment, and the brain later in life, investigators at Johns Hopkins Medicine and ...

Parkinson’s disease steals ease and movement by striking a narrow band of midbrain neurons. If you study or cover neuroscience, you have seen the promise and frustration in efforts to grow these ...

By examining genetic clues that linger in adult cells, scientists have now gained surprising insights into the developmental ...

Researchers have created one of the most realistic “mini-brains” yet, reports New Scientist, growing a tiny version of a developing human cerebral cortex, complete with a network of blood vessels that ...

Scientists mapped human brain development in Down syndrome at a cellular level, discovering that stem cells "rush" to become ...

Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and their collaborators have created one of the most comprehensive single cell maps of the developing human brain. The atlas captures nearly every cell type, ...
