When brain development gets off to a bad start, the consequences are lifelong. One example is a condition called SCN2A haploinsufficiency, in which children are born with just one functioning copy of ...
New findings from Karolinska Institutet reveal how the gene HNRNPU coordinates several fundamental molecular processes during ...
Researchers at the VIB-UAntwerp Center for Molecular Neurology have visualized how brain network development is altered in a model of KCNQ2-related developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, a rare ...
Using CRISPR, Hebrew University of Jerusalem team finds PEDS1 enzyme linked to reduced brain size; study maps 331 genes ...
A new study led by scientists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and INSERM identified genes essential for turning embryonic stem cells into brain cells, including a gene linked to a previously ...
Nearly 30 years ago, researchers began studying the gene Astn1, which encodes the cell adhesion protein astrotactin 1 in mice, and its role in brain development. During this time, they learned a great ...
A neurologic disorder is any condition that affects the brain and nerves throughout the body. Common neurologic conditions in children include epilepsy, cerebral palsy, attention deficit hyperactivity ...
Developmental delays can affect a child’s physical, cognitive, communication, social, emotional, or behavioral skills. Often, delays affect more than one area of development. When a child has delays ...
