The variability of severity in hypoxia ischemia (HI) induced brain injury among research subjects is a major challenge in developmental brain injury research.
Single brain cells reveal genes controlling formation, development
In one of the first studies to “read” the genetic activity inside individual brain cells, University of Wisconsin—Madison neuroscientist Xinyu Zhao has identified the genetic machinery that causes maturation in a young nerve cell.
