Every organism must be able to respond to stimuli in its environment, but when animal sizes strain the limits of neuron ...

DelveInsight's, “Motor Neuron Disease Pipeline Insight 2026” report provides comprehensive insights about 180+ companies and 200+ pipeline drugs in Motor Neuron Disease pipeline landscape. It covers ...

For the fruit fly, a sense of taste is critical to whether it thrives or dies. The little winged creature has taste organs in its mouthpiece as well as throughout its body, including its legs, abdomen ...

Scientists placed 200,000 living human brain cells on a microchip and taught it how to play a doomsday video game — and are now using the dystopian tech to power AI data centers. Australian biotech ...

First look: Australian biotech startup Cortical Labs has crossed another boundary in biological computing. Its latest hardware platform, the CL1, uses living human neurons as the core of a fully ...

A clump of human brain cells can play the classic computer game Doom. While its performance is not up to par with humans, experts say it brings biological computers a step closer to useful real-world ...

Vesalic is pioneering a novel therapeutic to intercept and neutralise these toxins, potentially slowing or halting progression of monogenic and sporadic forms of ALS In addition, Vesalic has ...

This groundbreaking discovery has revealed a systemic metabolic dysfunction that creates a toxic exosome cargo in ALS patients, which is carried to the CNS, where it binds to and damages neurons ...

This discussion explores how tislelizumab’s unique Fc-region engineering may influence its activity in gastric cancer, particularly in patients with peritoneal metastases. Tislelizumab is designed to ...

Creating a virtual brain may sound like a science-fiction nightmare, but for neuroscientists in Japan and at Seattle’s Allen Institute, it’s a big step toward a long-held dream. They say their ...

Motor neurons are some of the largest cells in the human body. In particular, upper neurons—extending from the cerebral cortex to the brain stem or spinal cord—average 60μm in diameter. 3,4 These ...

Researchers found that neurons can use fat, not just sugar, to power the brain. When a protein called DDHD2 fails, this process breaks down and leads to serious brain problems. Scientists were able to ...
