Our brains contain billions of neurons and trillions of connections, and scientists are only beginning to understand the ...

A new study reveals that microRNAs—tiny regulators of gene expression—play a crucial role in shaping Purkinje cells, rare ...

“For the first time, we were able to see that certain microRNAs are enriched in Purkinje cells but not in pyramidal neurons,” says Lippi, “and by turning these microRNAs off we show how ...
