“This is a paradigm shift,” says Donn Van Deren, PhD, postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, who ...

A new UC Davis study found that people with anxiety disorders had lower levels of choline in key brain regions — but ...

The tiny chips hitch a ride on immune cells to target inflammation in the brain. Scientists hope to kick off clinical trials within three years. From restoring movement and speech in people with ...

MIT researchers are using living cells to target diseased brain areas and deliver tiny electronic devices that can modulate ...

Researchers say they have found clear evidence that the human brain can keep making new neurons well into adulthood, potentially settling decades of controversy. This new neuron growth, or ...

UCSF scientists have developed a “molecular GPS” to guide immune cells into the brain and kill tumors without harming healthy tissue. It is the first living cell therapy that can navigate through the ...

The effectiveness of chemotherapy for brain cancer, done with a technique that opens the blood-brain barrier, can be ...

Gliomas are cancers that originate directly in the brain, instead of spreading to the brain from other parts of the body.

New diagnostic chip pulls packets released from tumor cells out of blood, showing whether cancer cells died during chemotherapy infusion.

Elizabeth Jonas first got interested in mitochondria by chance. In 1995, she was a postdoctoral researcher at Yale, working at the Marine Biological Lab in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, where she was ...

Detailed mapping of 1.2 million brain cells has revealed that not all cell types age in the same way and that some – found in a specific ‘hot spot’ – are more sensitive to the aging process. It opens ...
