The Forum on Neuroscience and Nervous System Disorders hosted a public workshop on September 12–13, 2016 to more deeply explore ways to motivate and accelerate drug development for nervous system ...

In a first-of-its-kind study, researchers demonstrate that functional nervous systems can form within self-organized living ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed in an embryo. By labeling stem cells with a genetic 'barcode', they have ...

The first organized stem cell culture model that resembles all three sections of the embryonic brain and spinal cord, and produces a full model of the early stages of the human central nervous system, ...

Researchers at Rice University have revealed a previously unknown function of opioid receptors in the development of the enteric nervous system (ENS), often referred to as the "brain in the gut." This ...

The first stem cell culture method that produces a full model of the early stages of the human central nervous system has been developed by a team of engineers and biologists. The first stem cell ...

Scientists at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) have made a breakthrough in amphibian neurobiology. By using adeno-associated viruses (AAVs), the research provides new insights ...
