For biologists, seeing is believing. But sometimes biologists have a hard time seeing. One particularly vexing challenge is ...

Scientists have developed an innovative technique that combines expansion microscopy with mass spectrometry imaging to ...

Researchers have discovered a previously unknown type of connective tissue cells that surround cancer cells in pancreatic tumors. The newly discovered cells counteract tumor development and may ...

D bioprinting holds great potential in the field of regenerative medicine to produce miniaturized tissues and organ ...

Scientists can build microfluidic systems in a Petri dish out of collagen, cells, and other proteins with structural ...

Scientists are looking for answers about how these confounding trips, known as metastases, occur throughout the human body ...

Stanford Medicine researchers have developed a blood test capable of detecting cancers, the ways cancer resists treatments ...

D printing skin, bone, and even working organs could change transplant medicine and medical research — but how, exactly, does ...

His parents enrolled him in a study that was collecting and storing immature testicular tissue, and the sperm-forming stem cells in them, from young patients with the goal of eventually giving ...

This new battery, smaller than a grain of rice, can do more than just store energy—it can power living tissues, support synthetic cells, and even move on its own. The breakthrough comes as the ...

they undergo processes that instruct which cells and tissues are ‘self’ vs ‘non-self’. While all immune cells maintain an innate ability to discern what is foreign and what is not, this function is ...

Although telomerase is present in proliferative stem cells of renewal tissues, its level is apparently insufficient to fully maintain telomere length, since these tissues show gradual telomere ...
