Purkinje cell drawing by Santiago Ramón y Cajal circa 1899. Scientists at the annual 2014 Society for Neuroscience meeting (November 14-19) in Washington D.C. presented unpublished research that links ...
A multi-institutional team of brain researchers has discovered some of the ways that the human brain has evolved to allow for better cognitive processing by comparing certain nerve cells from the ...
A new finding by a Virginia Tech neuroscientist at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC is challenging the way ...
Although the prevailing wisdom among neuroscientists is that Purkinje cells have just one primary dendrite that connects with a single climbing fiber from the brain stem, new research shows that ...
A new McGill University study has found a direct link between age‑related declines in neuron activity in the cerebellum and worsening motor skills, including gait, balance and agility. While it is ...
A new study upends movement disorder research, proving Purkinje cells are a poor biomarker for deep cerebellar nuclei.
A new finding by a Virginia Tech neuroscientist at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC is challenging the way investigators study chronic neurological disorders such as dystonia, ataxia, ...
As the brain ages, it loses cells. Researchers have predominantly focused on the effects of cell death in brain areas responsible for cognition, but the cerebellum, most well-known for coordinating ...
In 1906, Spanish scientist Santiago Ramón y Cajal won the Nobel Prize for his pioneering studies of the microscopic structures of the brain. His famous drawings of Purkinje cells in the cerebellum ...
