Our brain is arguably the organ that most distinguishes humans from other primates. Its exceptional size, complexity and capabilities far exceed those of any other species on Earth. Yet humans share ...

The human brain is not a fast-healing organ. Normally it doesn’t need to be as adult brain cells are stable and last for a ...

Researchers developed two computational tools to decode how cells communicate in tissues. sCCIgen creates realistic virtual ...

AN ADULT HUMAN body consists of some 37trn cells. Not so long ago, these were thought to come in 220 different types. That number, the product of painstaking decades spent peering through microscopes ...

Researchers in Japan built a miniature human brain circuit using fused stem-cell–derived organoids, allowing them to watch ...

Researchers say study findings may lead to a more promising future for cell therapy targeting stroke and other neurological disorders.

New insights into the brain could pave the way for targeted treatments for anxiety, depression, and other mental health ...

A new 3D human brain tissue platform developed by MIT researchers is the first to integrate all major brain cell types, including neurons, glial cells and the vasculature into a single culture. Grown ...

Cell culture is a fundamental technique in biotechnology and life sciences that involves growing and maintaining living cells outside their natural environment, typically in a controlled laboratory ...

In most solid tumors, high numbers of regulatory T (Treg) cells are associated with poorer outcomes because they dampen the immune system's ability to fight against a tumor. Subscribe to our ...
