MIT scientists have developed a new 3D human brain tissue model that could change how researchers study neurological diseases ...

Graham Johnson, a computational biologist and scientific illustrator at the Allen Institute for Cell Science, recalls fantasizing at a lunch table, more than 15 years ago, about a computer model of a ...

Scientists are exploring ways to mimic the origins of human life without two fundamental components: sperm and egg. They are coaxing clusters of stem cells – programmable cells that can transform into ...

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which replicates development of the tissues supporting the embryo from two to four ...

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tahoe Therapeutics today announced $30 million in new funding to build the definitive foundational dataset for training Virtual Cell Models. With this, the team will ...

Cambridge scientists grow ‘hematoids’, embryo-like structures from stem cells that generate blood stem cells after two weeks ...

Scientists found that embryonic skin cells “whisper” through faint mechanical tugs, using the same force-sensing proteins that make our ears ultrasensitive. By syncing these micro-movements, the cells ...

Megan Molteni reports on discoveries from the frontiers of genomic medicine, neuroscience, and reproductive tech. She joined STAT in 2021 after covering health and science at WIRED. You can reach ...
