Where Zika virus persists in monkeys; more-advanced mini brains; artificial womb supports fetal lambs for weeks; cancer mutations in stem cell lines; science marches around the globe
The lungs of extremely premature lambs supported in a closed, sterile environment that enables fluid-based gas exchange grow and develop normally, researchers report.
Thousands of people around the world gathered to show support for science today. Here’s a sampling of sights and signs from the Marches for Science in Berlin, Chicago, and Washington, DC.
The Scientist's Bob Grant and Tracy Vence are in the nation's capital, covering the demonstration designed to celebrate the research enterprise and advocate for evidence-based policymaking.
CRISPR patent ruling appealed; CRISPR-based nucleic acid test; an experimental gene therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy and a cell-based protocol for Parkinson’s disease show promise in mice
Explore how emerging biomarker research and ultrasensitive multiplex proteomics are revealing molecular signatures associated with neurodegeneration, inflammation, and disease progression in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Explore practical strategies for designing, optimizing, and validating qPCR assays to improve specificity, reproducibility, and confidence across routine and high-throughput gene expression studies.
Explore strategies for navigating critical analytical decisions in single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics, from quality control and data integration to clustering, marker selection, and cell-type annotation.
Automation can help to increase efficiency and reproducibility, but often comes at a significant cost. The ASSIST PLUS pipetting robot streamlines workflows at an affordable price, offering accessible automation with minimal programming requirements.
Corning® Cell Strainers are sterile, easy-to-use devices for rapidly isolating primary cells to consistently obtain a uniform single-cell suspension from tissues. Applications include stem cells and primary cells.
Real time imaging shouldn't outlast your cell surface stain. CellBrite® Steady: cell surface staining kits with fluorescent membrane dye plus enhancer for imaging live cell surface for several hours to days.
