Microneurography is a method that allows the researchers to listen to the nerve signalling in one nerve cell at a time. No less than 16 different types of nerve cells have been identified by ...

Scientists have re-created a pain pathway in the brain by growing four key clusters of human nerve cells in a dish. This laboratory model could be used to help explain certain pain syndromes, and ...

Scientists created a model of the human pain pathway in a dish by connecting four separate brain organoids. The feat should help them understand sensory disorders like those affecting pain perception.

A recent study by the Hector Institute for Translational Brain Research (HITBR) at the Central Institute of Mental Health ...

Organoids have transformed biomedical research by giving scientists miniature versions of human organs to study in the lab.

Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by a progressive loss of nerve cells leading to a decline in memory and cognition. Now, a new study by a team of researchers at KU Leuven and VIB explored the ...
