New evidence shows that precursors of myelin-producing cells — one of the few #brain cell types that continue to be produced ...

As prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers eye limits to the current phase of the technology, a different approach ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. "Neurogenesis," or the formation of new neurons, is known to take place before birth. But some ...

Some parts of our bodies bounce back from injury in fairly short order. The outer protective layer of the eye—called the cornea—can heal from minor scratches within a single day. The brain is not one ...

After three years of study, the researchers found that alpha-synuclein, a protein closely linked to Parkinson’s disease, forms an abnormal connection with an enzyme called ClpP. This enzyme normally ...

A large genetic screen has revealed how stem cells transform into brain cells, exposing hundreds of genes that make this ...

In experiments with mice, Johns Hopkins Medicine scientists report new evidence that precursors of myelin-producing cells - one of the few brain cell types that continue to be produced in the adult ...
