Researchers at Eli and the Edythe Broad Center for Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at UCLA have developed a first-of-its-kind roadmap that describes how stem cells become sensory interneurons -; the cells that enable sensations such as touch, pain and itching. The study, performed using embryonic stem cells from mice, also identified a method …

Stem cells are inflated: We are one step closer to making organs in a dish

Leave a Comment / Science / By

Using a mouse model, researchers have deciphered an alternative path taken by certain cells to make organs and used that knowledge to utilize a new type of stem cell as a potential source of organs in a dish. Imagine if you could repair damaged tissue in our organs. This is what stem cell research is …
