Understanding human gene function in living organisms has long been hampered by fundamental differences between species.

Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) represent a profound challenge to global health, characterized by progressive neuronal dysfunction and loss, leading to ...

Human-centric task modeling and formal verification have emerged as pivotal approaches in the design and evaluation of complex socio-technical systems. These methodologies integrate detailed ...

Researchers recently developed a bone marrow model to study how the body generates cells. Interestingly, this model is the first of its kind to be developed entirely from human cells. Not only can ...

Artificial intelligence was built to process data, not to think like us. Yet a growing body of research is finding that the ...

The U.S. government has recognized the expansion of the biological threat landscape, as evidenced by the guidance and priority missions outlined in various documents, including the 2023 Department of ...

Typically, bone marrow research relies heavily on animal models and oversimplified cell cultures in the laboratory. Now, researchers from the Department of Biomedicine at the University of Basel and ...

To create a cervix-on-a-chip, the researchers added cells that line the cervical canal to one channel of a microfluidic device. To an adjacent channel, they introduced cervical fibroblasts that form ...

Medical researchers have used animals, particularly mice, to mimic disease and study biological phenomena. The origin of mice as a standard model system for scientific research can extend back to the ...

Human periportal assembloid, showcasing the three key cell types of the liver: portal fibroblasts (magenta), cholangiocytes (green), and hepatocyte nuclei (blue). All cell borders are delineated in ...

Neurofibrillary tangles mark Alzheimer’s disease and a plethora of primary tauopathies. How best to study them in the lab? Most mouse tauopathy models overexpress the human tau protein and are highly ...
