In this workshop, you will learn how to optimally culture organoids and support their growth after genetic manipulation.

Researchers remuscularize the heart after cardiac infarction with stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes and ready-made microvessels.

In this workshop, you will learn tips and tricks for culturing stem cells in 2D.

Scientists uncover the promise of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), also known as medicinal signaling cells, to modulate the immune system and regenerate tissue.

Understanding this complex and still largely enigmatic process will pave the way for researchers to control the development of new morphologies.

Understanding biology’s software—the rules that enable great plasticity in how cell collectives generate reliable anatomies—is key to advancing tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

A study finds similarities between cells that heal wounds and those that lead deadly cancerous invasions.

Planarian flatworms grow to double their normal size when scientists inhibit a gene that suppresses growth.

Physicists, geneticists, computer scientists, and biologists are working together to gain a full appreciation of the intricacies of organismal growth and form.

Collagen inside ankles has more turnover than that in hips, thanks to the action of microRNAs.

Scientists have manipulated the electrical signals that help guide flatworms in regenerating their body parts to encourage a flatworm to grow two heads.
