Researchers from Duke University and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute have developed a technique to target and deliver drugs to specific types of neurons in the brain. The team argues that this will enable scientists to more accurately study neurological disease while offering a more targeted treatment method.
The current method of treatment for neurological diseases involves dosing all types of neurons, which can blur the study of how cell receptors work and how their manipulation can lead to clinical benefits and side effects.
