A Japanese research team has successfully reproduced the human neural circuit in vitro using multi-region miniature organs known as assembloids, which are derived from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) ...
CCN1 is a key factor for stabilizing brain circuits in adulthood, offering a therapeutic target for conditions, such as Alzheimer's and PTSD.
Cheng Lyu is the winner of the 2025 Eppendorf & Science Prize for Neurobiology for her work in understanding how neural circuits assemble with such remarkable precision during development. Neural ...
Working in a mouse model, UC Davis researchers are able to distinguish brain cells activated by a psychedelic drug. This image shows the prefrontal cortex of a mouse injected with scFLARE2 (purple) ...
For decades, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder have been diagnosed from the outside in, through behavior, mood, and memory ...
New research shows how CCN1, a protein secreted by astrocytes, is critical for stabilizing neural circuits in adulthood.
