The cerebellum is highlighted here in orange with a magnified view of Purkinje neurons, one of the most common cell types in the cerebellar cortex. Cerebellar means "relating to the cerebellum." ...
This Purkinje neuron was derived from patients with tuberous sclerosis and model properties of the disease at the cellular and molecular level. Sundberg and colleagues first created induced ...
Scientists at the University of Southern California (USC) have developed an organoid model of the human brain that generates granule cells and Purkinje neurons—two major cell types found in the human ...
