Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have characterized how cellular senescence—a biological process in ...

Major depression is not only a crisis of mood, it is also a crisis of biology that reshapes the brain itself. As genetic tools sharpen, scientists are now tracing how inherited risk for depression is ...

Findings from the Living Brain Project reveal how senescence processes involved in early brain development may also shape brain aging ...

Explore the connection between neurodegeneration and cellular senescence in understanding brain structure and ageing.

Johns Hopkins scientists reveal that “inactive” GluD brain proteins regulate neuronal communication and open up new ...

Challenging a long-standing assumption regarding the adult brain, recent research has demonstrated that individuals can continue to develop new brain cells into old age. Researchers at Sweden’s ...

Bipolar disorder can feel like a storm that erupts from nowhere, yet for decades the brain circuitry driving those brutal ...

Canadian researchers show that stress modifies the morphology of brain cells in mice, directly influencing the rodents' level of physical activity. Astrocytes in the lateral hypothalamus region of the ...

A new treatment for one type of Parkinson's disease may be on the horizon after researchers discovered a "brake" that can halt cell death. The study, led by researchers from Stanford University, ...
