Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the ...

Understanding how bone marrow produces blood–and how this whole process can fail–is critical to fighting blood cancers and ...

Our body's "blood factory" consists of specialized tissue made up of bone cells, blood vessels, nerves and other cell types.

A researcher holding human embryonic stem cell cultures in 2004. In the new research, scientists use human stem cells to make models similar to human embryos. The models cannot develop into fetuses.

UCR scientists create a fully synthetic model for growing brain cells that could allow for animal-free drug testing.

Scientists have grown a human embryo-like structure in a lab which replicates very early human development - including the production of blood stem cells. The lab-grown embryo model could help ...

Using mathematical analysis of patterns of human and animal cell behavior, scientists say they have developed a computer program that mimics the behavior of such cells in any part of the body. Led by ...

In a world first that challenges what we thought we knew about biology, scientists have successfully engineered animal cells that can photosynthesize. The breakthrough promises to revolutionize ...

A biomedical researcher combining advanced mouse models with human-based and computational approaches explains why we can’t ...
