Researchers have developed a method to grow and maintain olfactory stem cells. The work is a launch pad for developing stem cell transplantation therapies or pharmacologic activation of a patient's ...

In a scientific first, researchers at theUniversity of Oxford have 3D printed stem cells that can mimic the architecture of the cerebral cortex, the human brain’s outer layer. The technique could ...

Stem cells can develop into other types of cells, such as muscle or brain cells. They can also renew themselves by dividing, even after they have been inactive for a long time. Stem cell research is ...

Stem cells are, in may ways, our lifeblood, and understanding them could utterly transform human biology. While stem cells have already worked wonders in medicinal research, showing signs of curing ...

Almost all cancers arise in organs and tissues containing cells that have the ability, for the lifetime of the organism, to replicate in order to maintain and replace cells that are lost because of ...
