The development of spinal cord represents evolutionary progression. The primitive tract is
responsible for functions related to basic survival such as locomotion. In contrast, the …

The cerebellum is a tightly folded structure located at the back of the head. Unlike the folds
of the cerebrum, the folds of the cerebellum are aligned such that the external surface …

A curious feature of organ and organoid morphogenesis is that in certain cases, spatial
oscillations in the thickness of the growing “film” are out of phase with the deformation of the …

In recent decades, special attention has been paid to cell death mechanisms, with the
exception of apoptosis. This could be due to the resistance of cells, particularly cancer cells …

During morphogenesis, a featureless convex cerebellum develops folds. As it does so, the
cortex thickness is thinnest at the crest (gyri) and thickest at the trough (sulci) of the folds …

Microglia are the immune cells of the central nervous system involved in a variety of
developmental processes, such as regulation of cell death and survival, spatial patterning …

Cognitive decline and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, pose
significant concerns for the ageing population. Increased understanding of the biochemical …

This thesis reports work in three topics-I) isotropic strain-induced rigidity transitions in under-
constrained spring networks II) uniaxial strain-induced stiffening transitions in semiflexible …

Introduction: Microglia are the immune cells of the central nervous system that are involved
in a variety of developmental processes such as regulation of cell death and survival, spatial …

Assessment of neuropsychological functioning in adults with ASD has been researched for a
while now, yet there seems to be no consensus on what the actual profile of impairment in …
