In a new study, an aging clock has revealed neuron-specific aging, as well as potentially neuroprotective compounds.

Not all brain cells are found in the brain. For example, a team at Caltech has identified two distinct types of neurons in the abdomens of mice that appear to control different aspects of digestion.
