Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute have developed a new stem cell model of the mature human amniotic sac, which ...

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 ...

The pace at which science evolves is staggering. Biotechnology is a perfect example of the leaps that science takes – 100 years ago, we would have struggled to know what a stem cell was!

Those who support a total ban on embryonic stem cell research sometimes talk as if theirs are the only views based on moral principle. But whatever else might be said in response to their arguments, ...

Stem cell-derived embryo models (SCEMs)1 are used in scientific research to gain a better understanding of early embryonic development ... For example, one common view in philosophy is that the ...

The ability to reprogram mature, differentiated cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs ... This enzyme has high activity in PSCs (including undifferentiated ESCs, embryonic germ cells, and ...

Isn’t this the type of stem cell research that bioethicists ... and how it taught modern couples to view sex and children, we don’t have a prayer on this one. As science fiction-style technology ...

Stem cells can produce any other cell type, it is just a matter of telling them in the right way. From a biological ...

Researchers have coaxed stem cells to grow into amniotic sacs filled with fluid 1. The model sacs, which grew to roughly the ...
