Neural crest cells are a population of stem cells that invade the embryo in early development. They play a big role in what you look like: the pigments of your eyes, of your skin, and the bone ...

Two new lines of brain research are testing whether aging cells can be nudged into working more like young ones. In one study, scientists boosted a protein called cyclin D-binding myb-like ...

Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes structural damage to neural circuits, which in turn leads to sensory and motor dysfunction. Transplantation of neural precursor cells/stem cells provides a potential ...
