Researchers at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine), have found that a key ...

A study by BRIC-RGCB scientists has unveiled new insights into brain development and neural stem cell maintenance, ...

Researchers identified DMTF1 as a key transcription factor driving neural stem cell regeneration during aging. The study ...

A study by scientists at BRIC-RGCB has shed light on brain development and the maintenance of neural stem cells. In a ...

Neural stem cells (NSCs) are undifferentiated cells capable of extensive self‐renewal and the production of specialised cell types, including neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. In the adult ...

When laboratory mice suffer brain damage, e.g., from an injection, research group leader Jan Deussing has observed that a certain type of cell always appears and is activated in the immediate vicinity ...

For much of the 20th century it was thought that the adult brain was incapable of regeneration. This view has since shifted dramatically and neurogenesis – the birth of new neurons – is now a widely ...

Drosophila neural stem cells, known as neuroblasts, exemplify an ideal model to investigate the intricate interplay between intrinsic programmes and extrinsic signals that govern neural development.

A new study, led by the University of Vienna and the Alfred Wegener Institute in Bremerhaven, shows how the eyes of adult marine bristleworms continue to grow throughout life – driven by a ring of ...

This image shows a postnatal neural stem cell (NSC) in the ventricular-subventricular zone. The majority of postnatal NSCs are maintained in a quiescent state, allowing for long-term maintenance.

The study used large-scale CRISPR gene-editing technology to systematically determine which genes are required as embryonic stem cells develop into brain cells.

As prominent artificial intelligence (AI) researchers eye limits to the current phase of the technology, a different approach is gaining attention: using living human brain cells as computational har ...
