DZNE researchers have uncovered a mechanism that determines why a neuron usually forms a single, long extension called an ...

Scientists have, for the first time, used an extremely precise genome editing technique called base editing to study gene function in human embryos. They found that a gene called NANOG is essential ...

The genes and pathways behind the formation of the first human cell lineages during embryogenesis could have clinical implications for regenerative medicine, pregnancy loss, and infertility. 1. Egg ...

By tracking neural crest cells in catshark embryos, researchers discovered that the molecular toolkit behind face-building is ...

By the time we’re born, our brains have all the hardware in place to form thoughts, and possibly even some conscious awareness ...

Summary: Researchers unmasked a hidden metabolic mechanism that explains why advanced maternal age (AMA) impairs female fertility and reduces the success rates of assisted reproductive technology (ART ...

Chimpanzee naive pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) can now be grown in cellular cultures, reveals a recent study. They successfully created chimpanzee early embryo models, called 'blastoids,' and found ...

Many people finish the workday not just tired but wired. Their mind keeps racing, their body feels tense, and even in moments that should be restful they feel a lingering sense of urgency.

You might have heard people talking about their nervous system being “overloaded” or “dysregulated” when they’re going through periods of heightened stress. Or perhaps you’ve been offered ways to ...

This image shows a developing neural stem (center, blue) and developing neural crest (yellow). UC San Diego researchers and their collaborators have discovered that during development, ...
