New findings reveal how the gene HNRNPU coordinates several fundamental molecular processes during the earliest stages of human brain development.

Through a combination of human NSC analysis in the lab and mouse model experiments, the researchers singled out a protein ...

The federal government is looking for researchers who can, in 5 years, develop stem cell treatments to repair brain damage caused by stroke, neurodegeneration, and trauma. The Functional Repair of ...

A study introduces a scalable 2D human neuron platform to probe how brain-like rhythms emerge and how specific drugs reshape them, aiding epilepsy and autism research.

Researchers have used gene therapy to partially reprogram the brain cells that store memories in aging mice, reversing signs ...

This discovery is important because it suggests a safer way to treat Alzheimer’s disease. Instead of trying to reduce ...

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines are a commonly prescribed treatment for obstructive sleep apnea, a disorder in which muscles in the airways collapse during sleep, blocking ...

A new Yale study provides a fuller picture of the genetic changes that shaped the evolution of the human brain, and how the process differed from the evolution of chimpanzees. For the study, published ...
