In separate studies, researchers compared gene regulation related to brain and face development in humans and chimpanzees using a new technique. In both cases, they discovered new genetic differences between these species. Image Research news | Dec 16 2020 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Stanford scientists assemble human nerve circuit driving voluntary movement A Stanford Medicine team used human stem cells to assemble a working nerve circuit connecting brain tissue to muscle tissue. The research could enable scientists to better understand neurological disorders that affect movement. Image Research news | Sep 28 2020 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Stanford scientists solve secret of nerve cells marking a form of schizophrenia A common genetic deletion boosts the risk for schizophrenia by 30-fold. Generating nerve cells from people with the deletion has showed Stanford researchers why. Image Research news | Jan 28 2019 Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute Scientists generate, track development of myelin-producing brain cells Studying human oligodendrocytes, which provide insulation for nerve cells, has been challenging. But a new way of generating stem-cell-derived, three-dimensional brain-cell cultures is paying off.
