Scientists at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, (NUS Medicine), have identified a molecular switch that helps aging brains ...

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

The federal government is looking for researchers who can, in 5 years, develop stem cell treatments to repair brain damage caused by stroke, neurodegeneration, and trauma. The Functional Repair of ...

Resting brain stem cells hardly differ from normal astrocytes, which support the nerve cells in the brain. How can almost identical cells perform such different functions? The key lies in the ...

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

Brain microphysiological systems are reshaping in vitro neurotoxicity testing through functional validation and advanced ...

The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H), an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, on Thursday unveiled the Functional Repair of Neocortical Tissue (FRONT) ...

Stem cells hold remarkable promise in the treatment of a wide range of diseases due to their unique ability to differentiate into various cell types and their regenerative properties. From ...

The brain runs on energy. Every thought, memory, or emotion sparks countless signals between nerve cells. That communication demands a steady, powerful fuel supply. Without it, the system breaks down.

When someone has a stroke—a leading worldwide cause of death and disability—time is of the essence. Almost nine out of 10 cases are ischemic strokes, caused by restricted blood flow in the brain, and ...
