When do peripheral nerves develop? Researchers used "mosaic barcodes" to prove that neural crest cells commit to their ...
How does the neural tube close? A new study uses physics-based modeling to reveal the actin "purse-string" mechanism and cellular coordination that prevents spina bifida.
Millions of neurons branch throughout our bodies, keeping them in close communication with our brains. This peripheral ...

Researchers investigating a widely used medication have uncovered an unexpected cellular process that may interfere with ...
The next surprise was that human organoids just kept growing. Mouse organoids were done with making neurons within nine days. Human organoids continued for 200 days, growing into 4-millimetre spheres ...
The human body is full of evolutionary compromises. The loss of the tail may be one of the clearest examples of how change ...
Their findings, recently reported in the journal Nature, overturn longstanding assumptions in developmental biology and could ...
When a salamander loses a leg, it grows back. When a human loses a finger, scar tissue fills the gap. The difference has ...
In about one out of every 1,000 pregnancies, the neural tube, a key nervous system structure, fails to close properly.
