University of Cambridge scientists have used human stem cells to create three-dimensional embryo-like structures that ...

Researchers have found a new way to produce human blood cells in the lab that mimics the process in natural embryos.

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 ...

Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have developed a 3D human colon model integrated with bioelectronics to ...

A paper from the lab of Jianping Fu, Ph.D. of the University of Michigan Medical School uses artificial intelligence to uncover hidden features of the developing embryo.

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 ...

Researchers at the University of Cambridge say they have produced human blood cells in the laboratory by using embryo-like ...

Scientists have created the first detailed day-by-day map of human embryo development using single-cell technology.

The development could help scientists develop patient-specific treatments and one day offer a lab-grown lung transplant ...

In human cells, there are about 20,000 genes on a two-meter DNA strand—finely coiled up in a nucleus about 10 micrometers in diameter. By comparison, this corresponds to a 40-kilometer thread packed ...
