Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital used fluorescent imaging techniques to track the sequence of molecular events that kickstart the migration of developing neurons, implicating an ...

Researchers have discovered how newly created neurons depend on blood flow in the adult brain to travel from their site of origin to their final location. The study in mice, published today in eLife ...

Large chains of migrating cells forming braided streams break down into a shower of young migrating neurons that continue to integrate into the entorhinal cortex and neighboring regions until 2-3 ...

Using microfluidic devices mimicking the crowded spaces in the developing brain, researchers gained novel insights into distinct modes of locomotion found in neurons. In the developing brain, neurons ...

Brain development is an awesome feat. Over a trillion neurons make connections with thousands of target cells to create coherent circuits for vision, language, movement, and memory. Most neurons ...
