A research team has developed a way to produce a subset of highly specialised brain neurons that centrally degenerate in motor neuron disease and are damaged in spinal cord injury, laying foundations ...

Researchers have developed a way to grow a highly specialized subset of brain nerve cells that are involved in motor neuron ...

Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have identified a molecular process that allows motor neurons to maintain protein production, a process that fails in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The study, ...

Scientists have long known that inherited neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's or motor neuron ...

A study led by researchers at the University of Camerino in Italy found that the fatty insulation protecting neurons can be harmed when we go without sleep, compromising our mental processing. Through ...

Think your cerebellum only coordinates fluid movements? New 2026 research reveals how your "little brain" also creates the ...

New research challenges the century-old practice of mapping the brain based on how tissue looks under a microscope. By analyzing electrical signals from thousands of neurons in mice, scientists ...

Across a typical lifetime, the human brain does not simply grow, peak, and decline. It passes through five sweeping structural eras, each shaped by distinct shifts in the wiring that carries signals ...

A new study adds to the wide body of research connecting chlorpyrifos to neurological effects, such as those experienced with Parkinson's.

Living organisms are made up of hundreds of thousands of cells that cooperate to create the organs and systems that breathe, eat, move, and think. Now, researchers from Japan have developed a new way ...

Findings could create new opportunities to treat and study neurodegenerative diseasesScientists discovered that sugar ...

Knowing which lysosomal proteins are enriched in which brain cell types will help better understand contribution to neurological disorders.
