It has been claimed that because most of our DNA is active, it must be important, but now human-plant hybrid cells have been ...

Scientists are exploring ways to mimic the origins of human life without two fundamental components: sperm and egg. They are coaxing clusters of stem cells – programmable cells that can transform into ...

Scientists have unveiled the first draft of the Human Cell Atlas, a project aiming to map every cell type in the human body to enhance the understanding of health and disease. It could eventually be ...

The most complex engineering of human cell lines ever has been achieved by scientists, revealing that our genomes are more resilient to significant structural changes than was previously thought. The ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far surpassing previous efforts that produced only a few dozen. By ...

Creating human eggs from adult cells just got one step closer to reality. A technique used in cloning combined with fertilization and a bit of chemical coaxing caused human skin cells to produce eggs ...

Typically, bone marrow research relies heavily on animal models and oversimplified cell cultures in the laboratory. Now, researchers from the Department of Biomedicine at the University of Basel and ...

Scientists published more than three dozen papers as part of the Human Cell Atlas, an effort to map the human body cell by cell. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Human cells stored and grown in laboratory of Stanford University Medical Center will be used for the first time in the U.S. to make the vaccines that protect people against disease. use of human, ...

It’s not surprising that many people fear the dentist. Replacing a tooth often requires invasive surgery and implanting a titanium screw into a patient’s jawbone, then waiting months for that to ...
