When we hear sounds, specialized cells in the cochlear nucleus are the first to process that information, enabling our brains to understand speech, enjoy music and recognize various noises. For ...

Researchers have created an early map of some of the human body’s estimated 37.2 trillion cells. Each type of cell has a unique role, and knowing what all the cells do can help scientists better ...

An estimated 86 billion neurons in the average human brain govern our body’s functions and conjure — somehow — the human mind. C. elegans has 302 neurons in one sex and a few more in the other.

Launching a company in today’s competitive (and litigious) spatial biology market may seem risky. But the new company, Moleculent, located in Stockholm, Sweden, has a different focus than the spatial ...

Mapping is crucial in understanding and contextualizing our environments. Mapping serves many purposes – it helps us establish efficient paths between destinations, locate new restaurants or find our ...

Researchers from The University of Texas at Arlington and the University of California–San Francisco have used a new brain-mapping technique to identify memory-related brain cells vulnerable to ...

The most comprehensive cell map of the human gut to date has been created by combining spatial and single-cell data from 1.6 million cells. Mapping the cells of the gut can provide us with further ...

Researchers have mapped variation in human stem cells that explains how cells of an individual may shape a unique 'developmental dance' at the molecular level, thereby controlling how the brain and ...

Comprehensive analysis of blood stem cells: Using advanced FACS sorting and innovative low-input methods, blood stem cells (HSPCs) and their progenitors were isolated from human bone marrow and ...
