The spinal column is the central supporting structure of the skeleton in all vertebrates. Not only does it provide a place for muscles to attach, it also protects the spinal cord and nerve roots.

This valuable study tests whether prediction error or prediction uncertainty controls how the brain segments continuous experience into events. The paper uses validated models that predict human ...

Scientists have recapitulated in the laboratory how the cellular structures that give rise to our spinal column form sequentially. They have created a 3D in vitro model that mimics how the precursor ...

Scientists at the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Biology (ASHBi) at Kyoto University say they used a petri dish and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to learn how the early stages of ...
