Lab-grown corticospinal neurons offer new models for ALS and spinal injuries
Researchers have developed a way to grow a highly specialized subset of brain nerve cells that are involved in motor neuron disease and damaged in spinal injuries. Their study, published today in ...
Microglia are the brain's immune cells that clean out debris, such as damaged proteins and old cell parts, to keep the organ ...
Published January 7 in the journal Nature, one paper tackled the age-old problem of nature’s construction with a bit of a twist: it suggests that living networks, like our brain, may use some of the ...
How do electrical signals become "about" something? Through purely physical processes, neural networks transform activity ...
