Neural tissue engineering aims to mimic the brain's complex environment, the extracellular matrix, which supports nerve cell growth, development, and proper connectivity. This environment is carefully ...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Scientists have reached a milestone in an ambitious initiative to chart how the many types of brain ...

UCR scientists create a fully synthetic model for growing brain cells that could allow for animal-free drug testing.

An international research team has provided an unprecedented look at how gene regulation evolves during human brain development, showing how the 3D structure of chromatin—DNA and proteins—plays a ...

Researchers have created functional brain-like tissue without relying on any animal-derived materials, marking a major step toward more ethical and reproducible neurological research.

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have discovered a natural mechanism that clears existing amyloid plaques in the ...

A new study has created a map of DNA modification in two regions of the brain critical to learning, memory and emotional regulation. The map offers a benchmark for ensuring stem cell-based models ...

Just a few weeks after conception, stem cells are already orchestrating the future structure of the human brain. A new Yale-led study shows that, early in development, molecular “traffic cops” known ...

Researchers found that melting soft tau protein precursors before they form harmful fibrils could shift Alzheimer's treatment ...
