Electrophysiology: Studies test the electrical activity of your heart to find where an arrhythmia (abnormal heartbeat) is coming from. It focuses on the electrical properties of biological cells and tissues.
The complexity of the human brain, with thousands of neuronal types, permits the development of sophisticated behavioral repertoires, such as language, tool use, self-awareness, symbolic thou...
Cortical plasticity is the neural mechanism by which the cerebrum adapts itself to its environment, while at the same time making it vulnerable to impoverished sensory or developmental experi...
Complex animal behavior is produced by dynamic interactions between discrete regions of the brain. As such, defining functional connections between brain regions is critical in gaining a full...
My talk shall encompass how the stem cell research field has evolved from embryonic stem cells to adult stem cells and currently induced pluripotent stem cells with special reference to the f...

Over the last 15 years, human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) technologies have progressed from academic curiosities into tools with the promise to underpin commerce, leading to real progress in...
A major challenge for the clinical application of pluripotent stem cell therapy for neurodegenerative diseases is large-scale manufacturing and cryopreservation of neurons and glia that can b...
