Two separate studies have identified age-related molecular changes in the brain and adjusted them to improve memory. New research from Virginia Tech (VA, USA) shows that memory loss is tied to ...
When brain development gets off to a bad start, the consequences are lifelong. One example is a condition called SCN2A haploinsufficiency, in which children are born with just one functioning copy of ...
Which genes are required for turning embryonic stem cells into brain cells, and what happens when this process goes wrong? In a new study published today in Nature Neuroscience, researchers led by ...
For decades, Alzheimer’s disease has been framed as a one‑way slide, a slow erasure of memory that medicine could at best delay. That narrative is starting to crack. A wave of lab discoveries, smarter ...
A new study led by scientists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and INSERM identified genes essential for turning embryonic stem cells into brain cells, including a gene linked to a previously ...
