Researchers have discovered that an FDA-approved drug acts on support cells in the central nervous system to encourage sensory neurons to regrow after injury. A spinal cord injury damages the lines of ...

The sensory nervous system is a part of the nervous system responsible for processing sensory information. A sensory system consists of sensory neurons (including the sensory receptor cells), neural ...

Your nervous system is a network that sends signals between your brain and other parts of your body to control your body's movements and processes. This system includes your brain, spinal cord, and ...

The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) develops from neural crest cells which originate from the neuroectoderm. Based on the scientific hypothesis that the TMJ, as a "neurogenic joint," is more susceptible ...

Animal behavior reflects a complex interplay between an animal’s brain and its sensory surroundings. In a new study published in Nature Neuroscience titled, “Neural sequences underlying directed ...

Researchers have developed an ultra responsive and robust artificial nervous system for e-skins. Robots and prosthetic devices may soon have a sense of touch equivalent to, or better than, the human ...
