Groundbreaking discoveries and inventions in the Life Sciences advancing Evidence Based Medicine
A team of biomedical engineers and dentists have created a new hydrogel that promotes the regeneration and repair of bone defects without the side effects associated with techniques currently being…
A study led by Dennis Drayna, Ph.D of the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) has provided insights into the neurological deficits associated with stuttering and the…
Chinese researchers have developed what they believe could be a viable, safer alternative to CRISPR for correcting genetic mutations in humans to treat diseases. The technology is called ‘leveraging endogenous…
A drug developed as a potential anticancer agent could serve as a new treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. The drug targets an enzyme in order to disrupt cancerous growth, but researchers…
Scientists have created the first three-dimensional living entities from human embryonic stem cells. These advanced cellular structures or embryoids closely resemble primitive human embryos and could potentially be used to…
There have been several successful attempts at creating cerebral organoids artificially in the lab. Now, a team of researchers in Japan have gone one step further and have demonstrated their…
Early detection of breast cancer is critical, but 40%-50% of women have dense breast tissue which makes it difficult for tumors to be identified. Dense breast tissue is also where…
A new 3D tissue imaging technique has been developed that allows the effects diseases to be studied at the cellular level in far greater detail. The imaging technique, called X-ray…
When cells are damaged through injury or disease, stem cells replace the cells that have been lost. In some organs of the body, repair of cells is rapid, but in…
University of California, Irvine researchers have developed an innovative new stem cell-based therapy that has reversed the symptoms of multiple sclerosis in mice. While promising stem cell treatments for autoimmune…
