Gabby Voit at UWM studies zebrafish embryonic development to gain insights into human brain development and genetic mutations related to fertility issues. Her research could help understand ...

In an article published in Nature, researchers from Karolinska Institutet present an atlas of the early development of the brain. The atlas can be used, among other things, to find out what went wrong ...

An overview of Kif23's involvement in embryonic brain development, highlighting how its deficiency disrupts cell division and potentially contribute to microcephaly. "It's difficult to say exactly ...

Explore the connection between neurodegeneration and cellular senescence in understanding brain structure and ageing.

In the earliest hours after fertilization, an embryo takes its first steps toward becoming a living organism by shedding maternal control and activating its own genetic program. This critical process, ...

Scientists have found that blocking microglia (specialist immune cells in the brain) prevents infant forgetting ("infantile ...

The young embryo may survive this exposure, but brain development may be altered to varying degrees. The study published today reveals for the first time that the harmful effects of alcohol on fetal ...

During brain development, neurons extend long processes called axons. Axons link different areas of the brain and carry ...

Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in which aging cells change ...
