And, when you hear those stories in person…they provoke bigger ideas.   For example, one of our current customers said to me, “you folks are like pond larvae, you are small…but you’re always there, adapting,...

Greetings, Later this week, I get on a trans-Atlantic flight for the first time in over two years. I’m eager to attend an in-person conference of neuroscientists — and especially to sit face to face, as we discuss about how best to move the next wave of neuroscience forward.   As I’ve been looking forward about how great it is to be back "in real life" with all...

MBF Bioscience proudly continues its commitment to neuroscience advances.   A century ago, when neuroscientists were asked about the characteristic properties of a nerve cell (neuron), they answered that neurons are cells in the central nervous system (CNS) characterized by a soma (cell body), processes that receive information from other neurons (dendrites), and a process that sends information to other neurons (axon). This answer has not changed...

And...
