Researchers devised a process to convert a skin cell directly into a neuron, eliminating the need to generate induced pluripotent stem cells. Such neurons could be used to treat spinal cord injuries ...

A decade after scientists in The Picower Institute for Learning and Memory at MIT first began testing whether sensory stimulation of the brain's 40Hz ...

Converting one type of cell to another - for example, a skin cell to a neuron - can be done through a process that requires the skin cell to be induced into a "pluripotent" stem cell, then ...

In a potentially major breakthrough for regenerative medicine, scientists at MIT have developed a way to convert skin cells ...

A new process for converting skin cells to neurons directly could make it easier to develop therapies for neurodegenerative disorders.

Converting one type of cell to another - for example, a skin cell to a neuron - can be done through a process that requires the skin cell to be induced into a "pluripotent" stem cell, then ...

Converting one type of cell to another — for example, a skin cell to a neuron — can be done through a process that requires the skin ...

Cannabis appears to aggravate already decreasing nerve connectivity in young adults at risk of psychosis, a new study has ...

Researchers from the University of New Hampshire looked at the developmental process of the cerebral cortex—the outermost ...

This valuable study characterises the activity of motor units from two of the three anatomical subdivisions ("heads") of the triceps muscle while mice walked on a treadmill at various speeds. Although ...
