Researchers discover new principle regulating brain developmentThe human brain, like that of all other mammals, is dominated by an outer layer rich in nerve cells known as the cerebral cortex. It ...

THE Spanish histologist, Dr. S. R. Cajal, on p. 9 of his book “Les nouvelles idées sur la structure du Système nerveux,” translated into French by Dr. L. Azoulay, makes the following ...

Cultured stem cells reconstruct sensory nerve and tissue structure in the nose Lab-grown olfactory stem cells will enable research into therapies for recovering sense of smell after injury or ...

In a global first, Dr. Kremkow's team was able to simultaneously capture the activity of nerve cells in the retina and their synaptically connected target neurons in the midbrain.

In a collaboration with Stanford University, nerve cells have now been introduced into spherical cage structures using acoustic bioprinting technology, so that multicellular nerve tissue can ...

The cell has extensions and branches, so that it can communicate with other nerve cells, muscles and glands. The nerve cell is covered with a fatty sheath, which insulates the nerve cell and ...

To study these neuron-changing effects, the researchers first tested the effects of various psychedelic drugs on rat neurons in petri dishes. They found that most of these drugs — including LSD ...

Psychedelic drugs such as LSD and ayahuasca change the structure of nerve cells, causing them to sprout more branches and spines, UC Davis researchers have found. This could help in “rewiring” the ...
