Neuroscientists have found that our brain goes through five developmental stages as we age
When we think about cognitive development, we naturally think first about children growing up. Of course, the neurodevelopment of a child – particularly your own child – is fascinating, it’s a ...
How does the neural tube close? A new study uses physics-based modeling to reveal the actin "purse-string" mechanism and cellular coordination that prevents spina bifida.
The Wistar Institute's Alessandro Gardini, Ph.D., and lab have shed new light on how certain biological processes determine the development of neural cells. Their findings on a molecular "bridge" ...
Their findings, recently reported in the journal Nature, overturn longstanding assumptions in developmental biology and could ...
