Video Lecture: Recent Advances in Plant Genomics

The finding that jellyfish sleep implies that sleep is an ancient behavior, largely untouched by millennia of evolution.

Researchers used a viral vector to deliver a gene encoding a myelin sheath protein to the liver, thereby inducing robust and durable immune tolerance in mice by preventing T cells from attacking the myelin sheath.

The findings should help scientists sort out the bewildering array of neurons that are intertwined in the brain.
