"Learning and memory are generally associated with brains and brain cells alone, but our study shows that other cells in the ...

Transplants are rare because of new cancer treatments and small volumes. But experts say they still save lives.

Compounding their promising results, researchers also found that microglia, immune cells within the brain, incorporated the ...

A new study identifies key genetic vulnerabilities in glioblastoma stem cells, revealing subtype-specific dependencies that ...

An anti-Alzheimer's nasal spray that could delay the progress of the disease by years has been developed by scientists at ...

Researchers found that neural crest stem cells are uniquely capable of reprogramming, challenging current reprogramming ...

Our memories and thoughts stem from complex patterns of electrical and chemical activity in the brain. Central to this activity are synapses, the junctions where branches of neurons connect, similar ...

Scientists have created brain ‘organoids’ that may be showing early signs of sentience. Should that give researchers pause?

A new therapy may delay Alzheimer's disease progression by years, according to a study by researchers at Texas A&M University ...

The anatomy of the brain involves key regions including the brain stem, cerebellum, lobes of the cerebral cortex, and specific glands (the pituitary, for example) needed to maintain life and health.

They have the capacity to become specialized cells such as brain cells, muscle cells, and blood cells. They can divide and renew continually over a long period of time. When it comes to stem cell ...

People who regularly use marijuana experience changes in their brain structure and function, but it's not clear that cannabis is the cause, a new study finds. Researchers found specific ...
