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.

This bioengineering breakthrough has found a way to make neurons grown in a dish react just like the real thing. "Neurons that fire together, wire together" describes the neural plasticity seen in ...

Researchers identify "Otp" as a molecular switch in the brain that determines the balance of hunger and satiety neurons, shaping lifelong obesity risk.

To think, feel, talk and move, neurons send messages through electrical signals in the brain and spinal cord. This intricate ...

Researchers have developed a way to grow a highly specialized subset of brain nerve cells that are involved in motor neuron disease and damaged in spinal injuries. Their study, published today in ...

TBC, as the startup likes to refer to itself, said today it has raised $25 million in seed funding from Primary Ventures to coincide with the commercial launch of the world’s first biological ...
