Artificial intelligence (AI) is providing several tools in revolutionising treatment options in neuro-oncology, especially in ...

Here are five recent innovative bioprinting and bioink studies that are building synthetic biological structures.

Astrocytes are star-shaped glial cells that play an essential role in supporting neurons. They regulate the brain environment by maintaining the balance of ions and neurotransmitters, while also ...

Complex housing offers varied stimulating conditions. The aim is to enhance cognitive and physical development, as well as overall wellbeing and social interaction benefits.

According to the authors, similar approaches could eventually be used in neurons and glial cells and form the basis of novel medical interventions for people with Down syndrome. More information ...
