In an article published in Advanced Science, the researchers identify how neural stem cells in preterm infants are injured following cerebral hemorrhage.

Researchers around the world are studying how the human brain achieves its extraordinary complexity. A team at the Central ...

Neural tissue engineering aims to mimic the brain's complex environment, the extracellular matrix, which supports nerve cell ...

Neuroscientists in China have made a breakthrough in combating depression and other mental health disorders by growing dopamine neurons from human pluripotent stem cells that can target specific brain ...

Assistant Professor of Biomolecular Engineering Tal Sharf's lab used organoids to make fundamental discoveries about human ...

UCR scientists create a fully synthetic model for growing brain cells that could allow for animal-free drug testing.

A group of Chinese researchers has created a robot with a brain made of human stem cells. The technology is technically a "brain-on-a-chip," and the researchers have been working to train the robot to ...

Researchers are turning human brain cells into tiny biocomputers. Here’s what the tech can actually do, what’s hype, and the ...

The human brain can do many amazing things, but self-repair is not one of its repertoire of abilities. Once neurons die—from trauma, stroke, or disease—they rarely grow back. Scientists have been ...

Stem cells in the brain, called neural stem cells (NSCs), have the ability to proliferate, differentiate, and undergo a process of cell death. Most of the NSCs in our brains exist in a dormant state, ...
