This study develops a hyaluronic acid-alginate hydrogel modified with ECM-derived peptides to support the generation and maturation of V2a interneurons for CNS tissue repair.

This study shows that genetic diversity improves the performance of intolerance metrics in identifying disease-related genes, with multi-ancestry data outperforming European-only datasets.

This paper optimizes the PACT clearing technique for 3D imaging of intact and injured mouse spinal cords to study neural circuits and SCI-related changes.

This study uses caudalized human pluripotent stem cell organoids to model neural tube axial elongation, showing gene expression patterns and morphological features similar to development.
