A research team has developed a way to produce a subset of highly specialised brain neurons that centrally degenerate in motor neuron disease and are damaged in spinal cord injury, laying foundations ...

Proteomics experiments on Drosophila reveal sex-specific effects in aging, and an important role for a protein called DIP-β.

A recent large study conducted in Sweden has found that long-term exposure to elevated levels of air pollution may increase ...

While diet changes have long been credited for long-term health benefits, it's not often for brain health. A new UNC study ...

Think your cerebellum only coordinates fluid movements? New 2026 research reveals how your "little brain" also creates the ...

Air pollution was associated with risk for developing motor neuron disease such as ALS and likely contributes to an ...
