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 ...

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 ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers developed spatial aging clocks using single-cell transcriptomics to explore cell-type-specific interactions and their impact on brain ...

This color-coded graphic shows different populations of cells in the mouse brain, each one targeted by one of the genetic tools developed by scientists at the Allen Institute and other institutions.

Neurons are the cells in the brain responsible for sending messages to the rest of the body, and scientists have long thought that they are settled into one subtype once they develop from stem cells, ...

The U.S. Preventative Services Task Force has drafted a new recommendation for cervical cancer screening. The biggest change: ...
