Explore brain anatomy, from the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem, to the deep structures within the brain, such as the limbic system and basal ganglia.

The brain is an organ made up of neural tissue and has three main parts: the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem. Each of these has a unique function.

The study results support the idea that the aging-dependent accumulation of senescent cells, including senescent stem cells in the hippocampal niche, negatively affects normal stem cell function ...

These may be signs of a brain stem stroke. Since your pons plays a part in regulating your sensory, balance, and motor functions, any disruption of these functions can signal a problem in the pons ...

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 ...

A one-time injection of an experimental stem cell therapy can repair brain damage and improve memory function in mice with conditions that replicate human strokes and dementia, a new UCLA study finds.

The origin of some neuropsychiatric diseases, such as autism, bipolar disorder, or depression, and certain neurodegenerative ...

The federal government is looking for researchers who can, in 5 years, develop stem cell treatments to repair brain damage caused by stroke, neurodegeneration, and trauma. The Functional Repair of ...
