Researchers engineer CAR-astrocytes to target and remove amyloid plaques in Alzheimer’s, showing a 50% reduction in brain ...

When we learn a new motor skill-whether mastering a piano passage or refining balance while walking-the brain must reorganize the circuits that ...

Age is the single greatest risk factor for neurodegenerative disease, yet the cellular mechanisms that drive age-related protein accumulation in the brain remain incompletely understood. In ...

A single treatment of viral vector-delivered CAR-A construct in mice with existing plaque saturation cut the amount of amyloid plaques in half.

Texas Researchers just found a direct link between bad sleep and Alzheimer's. When your rhythm is off, your brain cells stop cleaning out debris.

In recent years, scientists around the world have been working hard to better understand mental health conditions such as autism, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer’s disease. These conditions affect how ...
