US researchers report that dietary iron supplements help to survive a normally lethal bacterial infection and resulted in later generations of those bacteria being less virulent.
The achievement opens up the possibility of using similarly bioengineered lungs for humans in need of a lung transplant.
An implantable bioartificial kidney may be ready for human trials by the end of the year, according to a recent update from the researchers.
The titanium microbots could one day provide a minimally invasive method for delivering therapies in humans.
A computer built to mimic the brain's neural networks produces similar results to that of the best brain-simulation supercomputer software currently used for neural-signaling research.
US Scientists have developed a device for automated blood drawing and testing that could provide rapid test results at bedsides or in ambulances, emergency rooms, clinics or doctors’ offices.
Scientists in Basel, Switzerland, have created an artificial tissue that mimics some of the biological properties of natural bone marrow niches and can support stem and progenitor cell replication over several days.
Researchers have developed a mineralized material that mimics the fortified structure of enamel. The protein-based substance could be used to prevent and treat tooth decay, as well as tooth sensitivity and pain.
Researchers have just made a breakthrough discovery in how we can possibly treat stroke patients in the future.
A robotic system has been developed to automate the production of human mini-organs derived from stem cells. This will expand the use of mini-organs in basic research and drug discovery.
Researchers have developed a new platform that makes CRISPR less like a cutting tool and more like a word processor with a search-and-replace function.
Affordable, rapid DNA sequencing is causing a revolution in medicine and healthcare globally, and it's happening now.
Scientists have revealed how a population of 'bad' antibodies in the immune system can provide crucial protection against invading microbes.
US Scientists managed to identify the gene that caused Alzheimer’s disease. Not only that, but they also managed to neutralize the gene so that it did not lead to Alzheimer’s development.
In a review article a prominent scientist calls for more integration between two fields of DNA-based research: genetics and epigenetics.
