Researchers at VIB and KU Leuven have identified a molecular process that allows motor neurons to maintain protein production, a process that fails in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

The maternal microbiome and immune system have both independent and synergistic effects on fetal brain health—changes in the mother's immune system have been linked to an increased risk of ...

VIB and KU Leuven researchers used spatial transcriptomics to map gene activity in motor neuron cell bodies and axons. In ALS ...
