How do neurons transport proteins? A new study reveals that Kinesin-2 motor subtypes regulate cargo specificity.

The next surprise was that human organoids just kept growing. Mouse organoids were done with making neurons within nine days.

Scientists have identified a previously unknown brain circuit that appears to drive chronic pain, separate from the pathways ...

Researchers at Purdue University have grown conductive polymers inside the brains of living animals using the animals’ own blood as a chemical trigger, then used near-infrared light to switch neural ...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive memory loss, cognitive decline, and behavioral changes. The deficits linked to AD are known to result from the ...
