Researchers have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which replicates development of the tissues supporting the embryo from two to four weeks after fertilization. This is ...

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 ...

Lung diseases like tuberculosis and cystic fibrosis can be difficult to treat. In part, that's because the two-dimensional models researchers use to study the diseases don't accurately reflect the ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers led by Maike Sander, scientific director of the Max Delbrück Center, have developed a vascularized organoid model of hormone-secreting cells in the pancreas. The advance, published in ...

NASA's AVATAR study will send Emulate organ chips containing human cells on the Artemis II mission to study how deep space ...

Human noroviruses, GII.4 strains in particular, are the chief drivers of acute viral gastroenteritis around the world, a ...
