Infertile women and survivors of childhood cancer could have their fertility restored thanks to 3D printing technology and the work of researchers from Northwestern University and the Ann & Robert…
Researchers at the Boston University’s Center for Regenerative Medicine (CReM) and Boston Medical Center have developed a new method of growing intestinal organoids in vitro for use in disease research…
A team of researchers at the University of Houston have created functional pacemaker-like heart cells from fat-derived stem cells, which could be used as biological pacemakers. The pacemaker-like cells could…
Researchers have developed a new method of detecting chemicals that are secreted as stem cells differentiate into osteocytes, allowing scientists to study the complex bone stem cell differentiation process. Mesenchymal…
A great deal of research has been conducted on bone marrow, which contains stem cells capable of creating blood cells through life. However, little is known about the spatial organization…
