Imaging is a critical technique in biology—from identifying cancerous cells in biopsies to observing how immune cells like ...

When probes are inserted into the brain for research or clinical purposes, the electrical activity of neurons is recorded.

Cells constantly probe their environments, searching for physical cues that guide their behavior. And yet a cell's response ...

Researchers have developed a method to direct stem cells to form specific structures. By triggering the expression of specific genes in mouse embryonic stem cells, synthetic organizer cells were ...

Cell therapy is an advanced biomedical approach that utilizes living cells as therapeutic agents to treat disease or repair tissue. 4 Scientists isolate cells from a patient or a healthy donor and ...

For the first time, a stem cell model has produced a structure resembling an early human embryo with a yolk-sac-like structure, from a single starting stem cell population and without direct genetic ...
