Living-cell robots gain self-organized nervous systems in new experiments
Researchers at the Wyss Institute at Harvard University and Tufts University have engineered tiny living constructs from frog ...
Biobots, whose growing line of variants started with xenobots, are fascinating tiny self-powered living robots built ...
Scientists may have discovered an innovative method to address one of the major challenges in neurodegenerative disease research. Last Friday, a study published in Science by researchers at Washington ...
New research from scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) describes a process for converting skin cells directly into neurons that bypasses the induced pluripotent stem cell ...
Researchers devised a process to convert a skin cell directly into a neuron, eliminating the need to generate induced pluripotent stem cells. Such neurons could be used to treat spinal cord injuries ...
The bacteria Geobacter sulfurreducens came from humble beginnings; it was first isolated from dirt in a ditch in Norman, Oklahoma. But now, the surprisingly remarkable microbes are the key to the ...
Converting one type of cell to another - for example, a skin cell to a neuron - can be done through a process that requires the skin cell to be induced into a "pluripotent" stem cell, then ...
