A dish of living human neurons has been taught to play Doom. No, it isn’t conscious or watching the screen the way players do. But it is learning to respond to signals in a way that produces ...
Can the bend of a banana give us insight into cancer? What does the shape of a rice grain have to do with infertility? The ...
Our immune system relies on T cells to fight infections. But T cells don't just show up and react—first, they train, get a game plan, and coordinate their defenses in lymphoid organs. Researchers have ...

Cloaked stem cells evade immune rejection in mice, pointing to a potential universal donor cell line
A study published in Stem Cell Reports demonstrates that genetically engineered human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) can ...
A pair of new studies have provided fresh evidence in the long-running scientific debate—and the result could be game-changing for treating diseases like Alzheimer’s and dementia.
How does a single cell reliably build one of the most complex structures known in nature? New research suggests the answer ...
Researchers at UChicago have developed a nanoparticle system that can effectively deliver mRNA to insulin-producing cells, protecting them from the body’s autoimmune response ...
In a major medical breakthrough, researchers in China have successfully used stem cell therapy to reverse both type 1 and ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human 'lung-on-chip' model using stem cells taken from only one person. These chips simulate breathing motions and lung ...
How much of our genome really matters? Some argue that because most of our DNA is active, it must be doing something important. Others say even random DNA would be highly active. This has now been put ...
"The infection of our body cells is like a dance between virus and cell," suggested Yohei Yamauchi at ETH Zurich. With their new system, the team watched how single flu virus particles move across the ...
