Researchers have developed the one-core-neuron system (OCNS), a groundbreaking framework that drastically reduces model size ...

In a paper published in National Science Review, an international team of researchers introduced the one-core-neuron system ...

Although neurons are considered the basic units of the brain and nervous system, they do not do all the work. Glia are a non-neuronal category of cells that do not transmit electrical signals but ...

In order to become a distinct cell type like a muscle cell or a neuron, cells must go through a series of developmental steps, each closer to the final cell type. When cells reach the final step, they ...

They discovered in human stem cell models of MND, the axon - the long part of the motor neuron cell that connects to the muscle - was shorter than in healthy cells. And the movement of the ...
