Scientists have discovered how stress can lead to serious mental health problems. To better understand the function of type I ...
How the brain largely maintains its function when neurons are lost – this is what researchers at the University Medical Center Mainz, the Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies (FIAS) and Hebrew ...
Adding rat stem cells to a mouse embryo resulted in a ‘hybrid brain’ in which the rat cells stepped in to restore function when the mouse’s sense of smell was removed, new research has shown. It’s the ...
Neurons are famously fragile, yet some injured cells manage to hang on, stabilize, and even reconnect. That quiet resilience ...
After injury, the visual system can recover by growing new neural connections rather than replacing lost cells. Researchers ...
