The main difference was that while many colleagues at my university were focusing on the fundamental questions, the research ...

Researchers used CRISPR to remove the CD33 protein from donor stem cells, protecting healthy blood cells from therapies that target leukemia. In a 30-patient trial, the edited cells rebuilt blood ...

The stem cell-based embryo model (SCBEM) takes advantage of the flexibility of pluripotent stem cells (non-reproductive cells that can give rise to many different types of cells) to resemble that of ...

Treatment with stem cells is safe and shows signs of slowing brain atrophy in people with progressive MS, per long-term early study data.

In many animal tissues, stem cells continually divide to create new cells that replace old or damaged ones. However, this ...

The International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) today announced the 10 most downloaded papers of 2025 from Stem Cell Reports, its peer-reviewed, open-access journal. Together, these highly ...

New scientific methods could one day render animal studies—the standard in research laboratories for more than 100 years—obsolete. Clive Svendsen, Ph.D., executive director of the Board of Governors ...

Renowned visionary English physician William Harvey wrote in 1651 about how our blood contains all the secrets of life. "And so I conclude that blood lives and is nourished of itself and in no way ...

Berkeley City College students visit UC Santa Cruz. On a YouTube livestream, Berkeley City College students carefully study the movements of stem cells to observe what they do as they become neurons: ...

Sickle cell disease causes premature aging of blood stem cells, which scientists may be able to address with a special class ...
