The growth of new segments (body parts) in marine worms is controlled by a special growth zone, in which special stem cells are located. New segments then emerge by the division of these cells.
Microgravity is known to alter the muscles, bones, the immune system and cogni tion, but little is known about its specific impact on the brain. To discover how brain cells respond to microgravity, ...
