Using CRISPR-based engineering methods to prompt stem cells to organize into embryo-like structures, scientists were able to create 'programmable' cellular models of embryos without ever experimenting ...

"These cells co-develop together, just like they would in an actual embryo, and establish that history of being neighbors," ...

Scientists have found a way to study early embryonic development without real embryos. Using CRISPR, they programmed stem cells to self-organize into structures mimicking early embryos. The cells show ...

A new part of an ocean plant cell has been discovered that might revolutionize farming one day. The structure can take ...

Federal scientists have developed a miniaturized battery as part of a materials analysis project that they think can garner ...

Polyphosphate (polyP) exists in all life forms; however, its biological functions in metazoans are understudied. Here, we explored Drosophila as the first genetic model to explore polyP biology in ...

This paper presents the important finding that BNIP3/NIX, a mitophagy receptor, and its binding to ATG18 are required for mitophagy during muscle cell reorganization in Drosophila. Although the ...

"I'm not aware of any measure you can make of the human brain where the male and female distributions don't overlap," ...

Management expressed confidence in this model, citing favorable conversion, retention, and monetization trends. Member acquisition grew 12% year-over-year, supported by a 26% increase in marketing ...

A team of researchers has made a breakthrough in diabetes treatment, uncovering a way to regenerate human insulin-producing beta cells. Their discovery, published in Science Translational Medicine, ...

We are at a critical time and supporting climate journalism is more important than ever. Science News and our parent organization, the Society for Science, need your help to strengthen ...
