Vergara, UTMB, Marguerite Sognier & Nasa/JSC Musculoskeletal Tissue Engineering Lab SPACE-AGE CELL CULTURE: This 3-D human rhabdomyosarcoma cell aggregate was grown in a disposable High Aspect-Ratio Vessel (HARV) in Synthecon's Rotating Cell Culture System. Biotechnology advances at a furious pace, yet for the most part, cell culture remains fixed in the past. Over the last decade, however, a new technology has emerged that models the microgravity of space--
Brainstorms Abound At NIH's Neurological And Stroke Institute
Neeraja Sankaran | Mar 19, 1995 | 8 min read
Research in the neurosciences is in the midst of a particularly exciting period of discovery, says Zach Hall, director of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), as scientists continue to learn more about the basic biology of such disorders as stroke, epilepsy, and degenerative conditions like Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Huntington's diseases. Hall's institute has supported and participated in many of these landmark studies. Now the field stands poised on the brin
New Funds Possible For Embryo Research
Franklin Hoke | Nov 27, 1994 | 7 min read
The moratorium on human embryo research coincided with the Republican presidencies of Ronald Reagan and George Bush. Both administrations opposed abortion, with support from some conservative political and religious groups, based on the view that human life begins when the ovum is fertilized and that the resulting embryo has legal rights to protection similar to those of an infant, child, or adult. In recent years, the Bush administ

Monoclonal Antibodies Find Utility In Cell Biology
Ricki Lewis | Dec 11, 1994 | 10+ min read
But, just as antibodies are finding increasing utility in cell biology, a new Food and Drug Administration classification for those products with clinical utility may affect researchers' access to the important technology (see accompanying story). Monoclonal History MAbs were born in 1975, when Georges Kohler and Cesar Milstein at the Medical Research Council Laboratories in Cambridge, England, fused two types of cells to form a hy
