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 ...

A study led by Maria Carmo-Fonseca at GIMM has helped clarify one of the main limitations of lab-grown heart cells, which are ...

In a groundbreaking development, scientists have uncovered a type of immortal cell in laboratory settings, offering unprecedented potential for medical research and treatment. These cells, with their ...

A new study tests whether spent yeast from breweries can supply cellulose scaffolds that support lab-grown meat production.

Stem cells are precursors of a variety of different cells: They can turn into anything from blood to bone to muscle. Human blood stem cells, known as hematopoietic stem cells, are the forerunners of ...

University of Cambridge scientists have used human stem cells to create three-dimensional embryo-like structures that replicate certain aspects of very early human development - including the ...

AMES, Iowa – A decade ago, Raquel Espin Palazon discovered that inflammatory signaling pathways must switch on for embryos to produce blood stem cells. The latest work from her lab shows the potential ...

Duarte-based City of Hope has been awarded more than $11 million in grants from California’s stem cell institute in recent weeks, including a $5.4 million grant to build and fund a stem cell research ...

Partillion Bioscience provides Nanovials, engineered microparticles that serve as suspendable reaction compartments for individual cells. Nanovials come in 35 µm or 50 µm diameters, and different ...

Editor’s Note: This is part of a series called Inside the Lab, which gives audiences a first-hand look at the laboratories of researchers at the University of Chicago who are working to improve our ...
