Researchers have developed a 3D-printed |brain-like environment| where neurons grow similarly to a real brain.

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible ...

Collective time-lapse images of a migrating neuron (left) and an elongating axon (right) from super-resolution microscopy. Growth cones at the tips of the neurons are extended while the cell body ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed. Researchers have now developed a 3D-printed 'brain-like environment' ...

The 3D-printed brain-like model from TU Delft promotes structured neuronal networks, offering a new tool for investigating ...

The study, published in Advanced Functional Materials and featured on its cover, also revealed new insights into neuronal growth cones. Accardo: “These hand-like structures guide the tips of growing ...

Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible speed.

A prime example of such an inducer is agrin. A neuron-specific splice variant of agrin is released by motoneuron growth cones onto muscle, where it binds to a receptor complex and initiates a ...
