Pair of Proteins Gets Brain Cells into Shape
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[21/12/2012] Scientists at the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) in Bonn have gained new insights into the early phase of the brain’s development. They identified two proteins that control the formation of cell protuberances. The typical ramifications through which nerve cells receive and forward signals ultimately originate from these outgrowths. Pair of Proteins Gets Brain Cells into Shape - Read more
”The project’s goal is to grow three-dimensional neural tissue“
( Source: MEDICA.de )
[21/12/2012] The international partners of the “3D-NeuroN” research project want to cultivate nerve tissue in three dimensions. German researchers are working on micro sensors with which they want to measure and evaluate electrical activity of neurons in three-dimensional cell cultures. ”The project’s goal is to grow three-dimensional neural tissue“ - Read more
