Millions of neurons branch throughout our bodies, keeping them in close communication with our brains. This peripheral ...

When do peripheral nerves develop? Researchers used "mosaic barcodes" to prove that neural crest cells commit to their ...

Precursor cells in the embryonic neural tube are organized in a specific striped pattern which depends on the signals they receive (left). Lehr and colleagues recreated this pattern in a cell culture ...

Millions of neurons branch throughout our bodies, keeping them in close communication with our brains. This peripheral network begins to take shape ...

Scientists have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular 'bridge' complex demonstrate a new level of detail in the ...

In the field of developmental neurobiology, accurate and ordered regulation of the cell cycle and apoptosis are crucial factors contributing to the normal formation of the neural tube. Preliminary ...

Bioengineering researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have developed a soft, thin, stretchable bioelectronic device that can be implanted into a ...

The Wistar Institute's Alessandro Gardini, Ph.D., and lab have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine ...

Researchers from the lab of Richard Simerly have uncovered the first example of activity-dependent development of hypothalamic neural circuitry. The work also suggests a novel role for the hunger ...
