Recreating functional vascular networks is foundational to both basic and translational vascular biology, however current methods to make blood vessels from stem cells are often slow, inefficient ...

Researchers have developed mice with organs containing human cells, using a convenient and surprising approach — injecting the cells directly into the amniotic fluid of pregnant mice. The method ...

Researchers have reported growing hearts containing human cells in pig embryos for the first time. The embryos survived for 21 days, and in that time their tiny hearts started beating.

"It's important for research and drug testing to be able to print a large number of organoids in a reproducible way. Our method also makes it possible to include other types of nerve cells ...

Scientists have raised the first viable mouse with two male parents into adulthood after editing imprinting genes.

In the current study, the researchers used human stem cells generated from skin and programmed to become motor neuron progenitors, a type of immature nerve cell that can later develop into mature ...

Louis Réard shocked Paris — and the world — with the debut of the bikini, a revolutionary swimsuit that would become an enduring symbol of freedom and modernity, challenging social norms and redefinin ...

A new model of memory — and a little-heralded type of brain cell — might explain why the human brain has such a huge storage capacity, researchers reported in the journal PNAS in May. The ...

Upon exposure to the chemical pair, the zebrafish embryos exhibited various brain abnormalities, such as the rostral shift in brain region markers (e.g., hoxb1a gene), duplication of key neurons ...

The hair transplant industry has witnessed remarkable technological leaps over the past decade.

New moms can donate their placentas under a Mercy Health initiative called Beginnings and Blessings. The program, which rolled out a year ago and has since expanded to six Mercy hospitals across the ...
