For decades, scientists assumed that neural stem cells (NSCs) only occur in the brain and spinal cord. A new international ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed ...

Cells with electrophysiological activity obtained at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) are opening up new ...

Scientists have identified a previously unknown type of neural stem cell (pNSC) that exists outside the brain and spinal cord, overturning decades of neuroscience dogma.

A research team at Stanford University has become the first to assemble a functioning brain circuit in a lab dish by ...

A stem cell donation can be called different names, depending on where the cells come from. Bone marrow transplant. This type of transplant is when stem cells are sourced from the spongy tissue ...

Researchers have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed in an embryo. By labeling stem cells with a genetic 'barcode', they have been able to follow the ...

and again — and then these stem cells start to specialize into different types, with different destinies in our bodies. In the first week, our cells reach their first turning point: They must become ...

The cells with electrophysiological activity obtained at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU) are opening up new avenues for the study of neurodegenerative diseases and the development of ...

Stem cells are the body’s “master cells” and can become many different types of cells. They can also help repair or rebuild damaged cells. Medicare covers stem cell therapy for specific uses ...
