What are the first steps that chart the path for a cell to become a blood cell, neuron cell, or pigment cell? Scientists have developed increasingly powerful tools to track those changes, but one ...
The brain is often described as a dense forest of connections, and for years scientists have searched for ways to trim that ...

New Parkinson’s research suggests the brain has a built-in defense system that scientists could learn to activate before neurons die
Somewhere in the tangle of a brain under siege by Parkinson’s disease, immune cells appear to be doing something remarkable: ...
Researchers at Princeton University have developed a hybrid biocomputing platform called 3D-MIND that integrates living brain ...
Dual-technique breakthrough: By merging SMLM’s ultra-high resolution with SIM’s ability to capture motion, researchers can build a richer picture of neuron structure and activity. Impact on ...
Christophe Leterrier uses advanced microscopy to uncover neurons’ intricate nanostructure and dynamics while creating ...
Scientists know that smell depends on a vast library of receptors, each tuned to different odor molecules. But they could not ...
In mouse brain cells, and in follow-up work involving worms and human cortical neurons, the team found that many axons ...
During brain development, neurons can regulate their movement until they reach their final destination thanks to a "molecular ...
The odor receptors in the nose are not distributed at random but organized in a precise spatial pattern, two new studies ...
New research reveals that hundreds of smell receptors in the nose are "highly organized" into tight bands based on type.
