Researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), and at Harvard Medical School have used mathematical modeling to show how individual cells appear capable of learning, a behavior once deemed ...
The planarian is nobody's idea of a genius. A flatworm shaped like a comma, it can be found wriggling through the muck of lakes and ponds worldwide. Its pin-size head has a microscopic structure that ...
Two independent research teams have successfully regenerated mouse brain circuits in mice using neurons grown from rat stem cells. Both studies, using interspecies blastocyst complementation to study ...
For years, the pancreas has been being taught in biology class as an easy system: insulin lowers blood sugar, and glucagon raises it. But that’s much too simple, new research says.

The overlooked astrocyte: Star-shaped brain cells may form specialized networks for reward learning
The new findings gathered by Navarrete and her colleagues could have important implications for the study of astrocytes and their role in neural circuits, as they appear to contradict long-standing ...
TThe fundamental unit of the nervous system is the neuron. Individual neurons are connected by synapses to form circuits. Evolution has driven the formation of ever more elaborate circuits to enable ...
AggreBots are mini living robots made from human cells that can move, spin, and swim, paving the way for medicine delivery and tissue repair.
