Researchers succeeded in creating cells whose proliferation can be controlled. The technique enables new and safe cell therapies. Cell therapies could help in the treatment of hereditary diseases, ...

For people with two hands, one is usually dominant. On a molecular level, life takes this to the extreme. All of the DNA in earthly living things... What are 'mirror cells' and why do some scientists ...

Studying the cell is a difficult and time-consuming process, but scientists have pinpointed generative AI as a potential way to make it easier. The idea is to develop an AI virtual cell that would ...

Scientist Elizabeth Ng is clutching a small flask with a clear mixture inside it that she’s just retrieved from inside a ...

A cell on its way to becoming skin pigment, blood, or nerve does not make that shift alone. It responds to a dense web of ...

Cells constantly shift and transform, triggering the complex choreography that shapes living organisms. Whether dividing into new cells or sculpting an embryo, these tiny movements rely on chemical ...

Researchers from the Wellcome Sanger Institute and collaborators say they have combined spatial and single-cell data from 1.6 million cells to create the most comprehensive cell map of the human gut ...

Established in 2016, the Human Cell Atlas (HCA) consortium set out to create a comprehensive biological map of cells within the human body. Now progressing into a data integration phase, the HCA is ...

Researchers have developed a new organoid that mimics the human fetal pancreas, offering a clearer view of its early development. The researchers were able to recreate a complete structure that ...
