Each part of the nervous system uses internal checks and balances to regulate its activity, responding to various factors like mood, health status, and the external environment.¹ These regulatory ...

Cambridge researchers used lab-grown human brain and spinal cord tissues to uncover a hidden mechanism that blocks nerve repair. By reversing that biological brake, they restored the ability of ...

A closer look at what happens in the body when stress builds up faster than it can be recovered from, and why that matters for your health. Your nervous system is constantly working behind the scenes ...

By developing their own functional nerves, these organoids demonstrate how engineering principles can drive biological ...

Researchers identified key differences between two widely used multiple sclerosis models, showing how each can better study myelin damage, immune responses, and repair. The findings may improve ...

A strong, stretchy hydrogel adhesive tightly seals protective nervous system tissue better than commercially available glues and could help prevent complications from neurosurgery (Sci. Transl. Med.

Summary: A milestone neuro-regenerative study has shattered a long-standing medical dogma by proving that “irreversible” damage to the connections between the human brain and spinal cord can be ...
