For decades, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder have been diagnosed from the outside in, through behavior, mood, and memory ...

The neural crest is an extraordinary population of multipotent stem cells, unique to vertebrates, that plays a pivotal role in embryogenesis. Arising at the borders of the neural plate, these cells ...

Gliomas are cancers that originate directly in the brain, instead of spreading to the brain from other parts of the body.

Shifting focus on a visual scene without moving our eyes — think driving, or reading a room for the reaction to your joke — is a behavior known as covert ...

In cellular automata, simple rules create elaborate structures. Now researchers can start with the structures and reverse-engineer the rules. Alexander Mordvintsev showed me two clumps of pixels on ...

A team led by researchers at the University of Toronto has discovered that a group of cells located in the skin and other areas of the body, called neural crest stem cells, are the source of ...

Scientists developed two new sensors that can detect brain cell communication in real time, tracking chemical messages between neurons with unprecedented speed and sensitivity. Dramatic performance ...

A hierarchy of models guided by experimental results from zebrafish shows that coordinated, variable-speed locomotion can emerge from network-level interactions among interneuron populations with ...

Researchers from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences and collaborating institutions have developed a novel ...

A phase I clinical trial led by researchers at University of California San Diego School of Medicine has demonstrated the long-term safety and feasibility of neural stem cell transplantation for ...
