Adults whose brains still have strong neuron production seem to have better memory and cognitive function than do those in ...

Scientists revealed how the protein can be used to rejuvenates neural stem cells. Scientists have discovered a protein that could help reverse the aging of neural stem cells in the brain. It’s that ...

When myelin breaks down, white matter in the brain deteriorates, a change commonly seen with aging. At the same time, microglia, the brain’s primary immune cells, can shift from protective responders ...

Understanding how a healthy brain works can provide insight into how it fails, too. Scientists hope that studying organoids derived from humans with neurodevelopmental disorders — particularly ...

Johns Hopkins scientists say they have used 3D imaging, special microscopes and artificial intelligence (AI) programs to construct new maps of mouse brains showing a precise location of more than 10 ...

The cerebral cortex, the brain's outermost region responsible for higher cognitive functions, depends on a highly ordered, layered structure. Its proper development requires newly generated neurons to ...

The Importance of Gliotransmitters for Brain Function, Plus Cognitive and Motor Efficiencies Gliotransmitters are neurochemicals released by glial cells. They support communication between neurons and ...

Part of healthy aging is taking care of your brain. Experts recommend these foods that support brain health and memory as ...

A research team led by Director Seongkyoon Choi of the Core Protein Resources Center and Professor Wookyung Yu of the Department of Brain Sciences at the Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science & ...

Scientists long believed the brain stopped producing new cells after a certain age. Neuroscientists studying 'super agers' in ...
