A growing body of research is challenging the long-held assumption that memory and awareness belong exclusively to the brain. Scientists working across immunology, biophysics, and neuroscience have ...

LISBON, March 5 (Xinhua) -- Scientists have successfully created anti-tumor immune cells in a laboratory using cellular reprogramming for the first time, opening new possibilities in the fight against ...

The International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) is pleased to announce that Alexander Meissner, Director at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics, Germany, has been named the ...

The man spending $2 million a year to not die might be the clearest mirror we have for a fear most of us carry quietly, one that started long before any of us ever heard the word 'biomarker.' ...

Human pluripotent stem-cells (HPSCs)—including human embryonic stem-cells and human induced pluripotent stem-cells—are reshaping the landscape of regenerative medicine.1,2 In Parkinson's disease, ...

Below, we’ve brought together the month’s themes in our new Trends Outside the Headlines, trends & insights report, collecting together and assessing the signals that matter for life sciences ...

The term 'microwave-safe' often means a container will not visibly melt or break, not that it prevents the release of ...

The tiny jellyfish Turritopsis dohrnii has amazed scientists with its rare ability to revert to an earlier stage of its life cycle, effectively sidestepping ageing and earning the nickname “the ...

After treatment, the mice’s memories were essentially shunted back into a younger state. The researchers found that reprogrammed engrams displayed molecular behavior of more youthful cells. Using a ...

While a cure remains elusive, cancer treatment has seen significant advances in recent years. New innovations include ...

Summary: Researchers have demonstrated that memory decline and symptoms of Alzheimer’s may not be irreversible. By using “partial reprogramming” on specific groups of neurons called engrams—the cells ...
