A new study by researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science reveals in unprecedented detail how the brains of male and female mice respond differently to stress.

Transplanting hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells was effective in rescuing multiple signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s in a mouse model of the disease.

In Brazil’s North region, members of the population of red mangrove trees do not often meet relatives from the South and vice-versa.

Many diseases cause severe damage due to brain inflammation. Managing this inflammation poses a significant medical challenge because the brain is protected by the skull. Now, new research has defined in detail the cells involved in these pathways and their function.

A team of researchers, focusing on a unique feature of quantum physics known as "vacuum fluctuations", has achieved a milestone in quantum technologies, demonstrating for the first time the control of quantum randomness.

New research has revealed that some genes produce less RNA than the previously established threshold, providing a window into the understanding of gene expression and gene expression noise.

Scientists have shown that immunotherapy after stem cell transplantation effectively combats certain nerve tumors in children.

An international collaboration between researchers has demonstrated that self-organization of neurons as they “learn” follows a mathematical theory called the free energy principle.

Scientists have discovered how poxviruses evade natural defences in living cells, and realised that drugs to stop them doing this are already available.

The rare Takakia moss is one of the fastest-evolving species ever studied. But according to a new study, it may struggle to survive the changes that climate change is afflicting upon its natural habitat.
