The Glia project aims to create a suite of free and open-source medical equipment that can be assembled cheaply and easily when and where it’s needed. Even essential tools like stethoscopes and ...

Integrating with the best-in-class Glia platform is a strong example of how we equip our banks and credit unions with the tools they need to thrive,” said Dave Frauenhofer, Senior Vice President ...

One of their major efforts was the study of laminin receptors on Schwann cells, the myelinating peripheral glia. By generating and comparing animal models of demyelinating neuropathies to patient's ...

But neurons are not alone in the brain or elsewhere in the nervous system: Brain cells called glia play various supporting roles to keep the system running smoothly. Between the axon of a ...

Traumatic brain injury, stroke, and degenerative diseases elicit complex pathogenic cascades involving glial cells such as astrocytes, microglia, and ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital used single-cell sequencing techniques to study retinal cells called Müller glia, showing that these cells have a unique set of "pliancy genes ...
