Advanced light microscopy techniques are giving scientists a new understanding of human biology and what goes wrong in ...

A KAIST research team has successfully developed an integrated platform that can implement brain-like layered neuronal structures using 3D printing technology and precisely measure neuronal ...

Researchers from the Xinjiang Astronomical Observatory (XAO) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have made significant progress in understanding how three-dimensional (3D) layered structures form ...

Nerve cells are not just nerve cells. Depending on how finely we distinguish, there are several hundred to several thousand different types of nerve cell in the human brain according to the latest ...

Unlike the brain and spinal cord, peripheral nerve cells, whose long extensions reach the skin and internal organs, are capable of regenerating after injury. This is why injuries to the central ...

To make structures inside a cell, physicist Matjaž Humar and colleagues injected cells with photoresist. Then they 3-D printed the structures and let the remaining photoresist dissolve.

Diabetes affects millions worldwide, causing both nerve and metabolic complications. A recent study suggests that diabetic nerve damage may also lead to impaired bone health.

They 3D-printed microscopic bar codes and an elephant inside living cells, and that too without causing any changes in their DNA. This technique could kickstart a whole new way of studying ...

A research team at RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences has developed a 3-D printed implant to deliver electrical stimulation to injured areas of the spinal cord offering a potential new ...

Gabapentin, which is used to treat seizures, nerve pain and restless leg syndrome might be linked with increased risk of dementia, a new study says.

With these findings, the team is optimistic about the future development of deposition-based 3D printing methods for printing bioinspired structures.

A team of researchers has discovered that a protein called cypin plays a powerful role in helping brain cells connect and communicate, which is crucial for learning and memory. By uncovering how ...
