A genome-wide CRISPR study maps 331 genes essential for early brain development, identifying PEDS1 as a new ...

An international research team identified hundreds of genes essential for the development of brain cells, including one gene ...

Scientists have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular 'bridge' complex demonstrate a new level of detail in the ...

This study is led by Prof. Hongyan Wang (Institute of Reproduction and Development, Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Institute of Metabolism and Integrative Biology, Fudan University), Prof.

By editing thousands of genes in mouse stem cells, the scientists identified a list of over 300 that are crucial for neural differentiation.

Spina bifida is a serious congenital condition caused by abnormal neural tube development during early pregnancy. While folic acid supplementation has dramatically reduced its incidence, cases persist ...

The mystery of early embryonic communication is starting to be unraveled thanks to a new stem cell-based model.

Research by a Stanford University team of scientists has shed new light on how and why neural stem cells (NSCs), the cells behind the generation of new neurons in the adult brain, become less active ...

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) ...
