Researchers demonstrated that two types of non-neural cells, when exposed to specific patterns of chemical stimuli, exhibited memory responses traditionally associated with neurons. This finding ...

Researchers have developed a 3D-printed |brain-like environment| where neurons grow similarly to a real brain.

"Now we can see that individual cell types have their own evolutionary path, becoming really specialized," Yi said. The intricacy of our neural pathways is unrivaled in the animal kingdom.

The team behind the project investigated neural networks grown from both mouse and human cells. Mouse cortical cells were harvested from embryos for the purpose, while in the human cell case ...

Morphological profiling allows accurate identification of cell types in dense iPSC-derived cultures, allowing its use for quality control and differentiation monitoring.

A research group led by Kazunobu Sawamoto, a professor at Nagoya City University and National Institute for Physiological Sciences, and Koya Kawase, a pediatric doctor at Nagoya City University ...
