First study to provide evidence of the direct impact of serotonin on the development of prefrontal cortex. A new study published today (February 16) in…
At least 8% of the human genome is genetic material from viruses. It was considered ‘junk DNA’ until recently, but its role in human development…
Recent research identifies DNA methylation’s critical role in craniofacial development, providing a pathway toward preventing cleft lip and palate by understanding environmental impacts on genetic…
Researchers at King’s College London have identified significant differences in brain connectivity between term and pre-term infants, revealing that these early patterns are predictive of…
A recent study uncovers the role of FAM53C in regulating DYRK1A, offering new insights into the cellular mechanisms of Down syndrome and potential clinical implications….
Scientists reveal unprecedented insights into human limb development, including the many intricate processes that govern their formation. Human fingers and toes do not grow outward;…
A UCL study reveals human newborns’ brains are similarly developed to other primates at birth, with significant growth occurring post-birth, challenging previous notions about human…
Mainz University and the US-American BENFRA Center have jointly demonstrated the effect of botanical products used in traditional Asiatic medicine on depressive states. Chronic exposure…
For weeks, you’d be hard-pressed to tell if the rapidly growing animal was going to become a chicken, a fish, a frog, or even a…
How can we reliably and objectively characterize the speed and various stages of embryonic development? With the help of artificial intelligence! Researchers at the University…
Research from the University of Birmingham shows that babies as young as four months can understand their body’s interaction with space. This study, involving a…
Findings suggest new ways to sustain embryos as development begins. By genetically testing nearly one thousand embryos, scientists have provided the most detailed analysis of embryo…
Impact of substances on zebrafish embryos shows how the prenatal development of human facial features might also be affected. Some substances in medicines, household items,…
The rare moss species Takakia has evolved over the course of millions of years to thrive in high-altitude environments. A collaborative research effort headed by…
Researchers in Japan have identified how the WOX13 gene negatively controls the destiny of regenerating plant cells, affecting the efficiency of shoot regeneration. Plants possess…
Growth spurts during puberty are not unique in evolutionary terms. Up to this point, it has been widely agreed that the growth spurt in body…
Scientists elucidate the process through which synapses compete with each other, and describe how during development, weak and noisy synapses are eliminated during development. Scientists…
