Your brain begins as a single cell. When all is said and done, it will house an incredibly complex and powerful network of ...

Neuroscientists propose a new theory of brain development where cells organize based on lineage rather than long-range ...

Researchers have found that three different autism risk genes actually affect similar aspects of neuron development and the same neuron types, although each gene acted through unique molecular ...

Neurons result from a highly complex and unique series of cell divisions. For example, in fruit flies, the process starts with stem cells that divide into mother cells (progenitor cells), that then ...

A team has identified many genes that are important in fruit flies' neuron development, and that had never been described before in that context. Neurons result from a highly complex and unique series ...

In a new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Neuroscience, researchers have identified the neurogenic progenitor that gives rise to dopaminergic neurons, the primary neurons affected ...
