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 ...

Over the last 15 years, I have witnessed how cell and gene therapy (CGT) has evolved in many ways, spanning from research and development to manufacturing. Breakthroughs such as CAR-T and gene therapy ...

iXCells’ mission is to empower life science researchers and patient foundations to advance personalized therapies and accelerate discovery of better medicines for a healthier future. iXCells’ cell ...

Researchers have developed a vascularized organoid model of hormone secreting cells in the pancreas. The advance promises to improve diabetes research and cell-based therapies. Researchers led by ...

In the same vein as weather forecast models that predict developing storms, researchers have now developed a method to predict the cell activity in tissues over time. The new software combines ...

As described in research published today in Cell, the new model can be used to study the origin and function of the human amnion and help identify previously unknown ways the amniotic sac might ...

Mor than 800 million people worldwide are living with diabetes, according to World Health Organization (WHO) estimates, with numbers steadily increasing. Diabetic patients experience abnormally high ...

An international team of researchers led by Max Delbrück Center Scientific Director Professor Maike Sander, MD, has for the first time developed an organoid model of human pluripotent stem ...

Stem cells are the body's ultimate shape-shifters, sustaining tissues by balancing two competing demands: maintaining their ...
