Researchers at Karolinska Institutet have developed a method that shows how the nervous system and sensory organs are formed in an embryo. By labeling stem cells with a genetic 'barcode', they have ...

The enteric nervous system (ENS) is a sophisticated, autonomous network of neurons and glia embedded within the gastrointestinal tract, critical for regulating motility, secretion, and blood flow. The ...

By examining genetic clues that linger in adult cells, scientists have now gained surprising insights into the developmental ...

A key step towards reducing the burden of central nervous system (CNS) disorders is the identification of disease-specific biomarkers that can help predict, monitor, and guide treatment development.

The Forum on Neuroscience and Nervous System Disorders hosted a public workshop on September 12–13, 2016 to more deeply explore ways to motivate and accelerate drug development for nervous system ...

When do peripheral nerves develop? Researchers used "mosaic barcodes" to prove that neural crest cells commit to their ...

In a first-of-its-kind study, researchers demonstrate that functional nervous systems can form within self-organized living cellular robots, conferring complex movement patterns and distinct gene ...

A new study demonstrated that introducing neurons into Xenopus-derived biobots led to the self-organization of active neural ...
