For the first time, researchers at the University of British Columbia have demonstrated how to reliably produce an important type of human immune cell—known as helper T cells—from stem cells in a ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave. Researchers have now mapped this hidden architecture in unprecedented detail, showing ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

A large number of missed school days, an older boyfriend, sudden possession of expensive clothes or items, a second cell ...

Pea-size clusters of human cells called brain organoids inspire both hope and fear. Experts are debating how scientists can ...

Cells experience many different types of stress, such as starvation or stress caused by too much salt or too high a temperature. Insulin signals respond to such stress signals by sending the protein ...

Mice have remained the focal point for life sciences research for the past several decades. Their universality in biomedicine ...

For decades, restoring sight after severe eye damage sat firmly in the realm of science fiction. Now a wave of converging ...

Chinese scientists clone monkeys using the same technique that produced Dolly the sheep two decades ago, breaking a technical barrier that could open the door to copying humans.

Dr. Maria Margarita Behrens traces her journey from South America to the Salk Institute in a Genomic Press Interview ...

The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) has awarded $7.4 million to support a University of California San Diego team developing a first-of-its-kind stem cell-based gene therapy for ...
