Stem cell research recently celebrated its 60th anniversary. Although the first publications in this field appeared in the early 1960s, it took another 20 years before the first embryonic stem cells ...

What are the first steps that chart the path for a cell to become a blood cell, neuron cell, or pigment cell? Scientists have developed increasingly powerful tools to track those changes, but one ...

The deal gives Cellular Intelligence control of a clinical-stage therapy designed to restore the dopamine-producing nerve ...

Organoids are miniature tissue or organ models formed by stem cells (including pluripotent stem cells, tissue-specific adult ...

PD, a shelved Parkinson's cell therapy, to AI biotech Cellular Intelligence in return for equity and milestones.

Explore the major milestones of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) research, from Shinya Yamanaka’s discovery to current ...

A newly discovered pair of stem cell lineages drives the formation of both tooth roots and the bone that anchors them. Understanding how these cells switch roles could pave the way for regenerating ...

Descriptions of the embryo go back at least to the time of Aristotle, but it has only been since the late 19 th century and early 20 th century that advances in experimental approaches allowed ...

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

Researchers have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which replicates development of the tissues supporting the embryo from two to four weeks after fertilization. This is ...

Scientists have discovered the stem cells, CXCL12, that anchor teeth to the bone, opening up new possibilities for ...
