Resting brain stem cells hardly differ from normal astrocytes, which support the nerve cells in the brain. How can almost identical cells perform such different functions? The key lies in the ...

Researchers at Lund University in Sweden have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain’s support cells ...

Researchers developed a way to directly reprogram human glial cells into PV interneurons without passing through a stem‑cell stage.

In an innovative new study of glioblastoma, scientists used artificial intelligence (AI) to reprogram cancer cells, converting them into dendritic cells (DCs), which can identify cancer cells and ...

Scientists at the University of Cambridge believe they may have discovered a surprising new way to slow the spread of brain cancer. Instead of targeting cancer cells directly, their research suggests ...
