Researchers say study findings may lead to a more promising future for cell therapy targeting stroke and other neurological disorders.

The human brain is often compared to a computer, but the latest wave of research shows it is closer to a self-building city, ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

Neurons are famously fragile, yet some injured cells manage to hang on, stabilize, and even reconnect. That quiet resilience ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have unraveled the processes that give astrocytes, the most abundant glial cell in the brain, their special bushy shape, which is fundamental for brain ...

Researchers have engineered a next-generation glutamate sensor, iGluSnFR4, capable of detecting the faintest incoming ...

Researchers report that neuronal activity is necessary and sufficient for astrocytes to develop their complex shape, and interrupting this developmental process results in disrupted brain function.
