Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far ...
Nerve cells are not just nerve cells. Depending on how finely we distinguish, there are several hundred to several thousand ...
Glial cells support neurological structures, function, cognition, behaviours, physical skills, and motor coordination.
Scientists at the Salk Institute have uncovered how a cluster of thalamic neurons links physical pain to emotional trauma, ...
