In an era defined by digital transformation, education faces the challenge of reconciling global technological innovation with the cultural and contextual ...

Japan has approved the world’s first stem cell therapy for Parkinson’s disease, offering new hope for millions globally. The treatment uses induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells to replace damaged ...

Stem cells have emerged as a transformative resource in dental and periodontal research, offering promising avenues for tissue regeneration and repair. In dentistry, both dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs ...

Stem cell research recently celebrated its 60th anniversary. Although the first publications in this field appeared in the early 1960s, it took another 20 years before the first embryonic stem cells ...

The use of stem cell transplantation, particularly autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT), has emerged as a promising treatment modality in autoimmune diseases. This approach ...

The stem cell-based embryo model and actual human embryos share many characteristics but are distinctly different. However, internationally, not everyone agrees on the definitions and what we should ...

From axolotls to zebrafish, stem cells possess remarkable regenerative abilities, enabling them to restore lost limbs and repair damaged organs. These extraordinary capabilities, however, are not ...

Cytokines are small proteins that serve as the fundamental chemical messengers of the immune system. They also play a key cell signaling role in stem cell biology, relaying messages that direct stem ...

Research shows that the under-representation of women in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) has many causes, including: unwelcoming work environments in STEM jobs, family caring ...

Women remain underrepresented in STEM jobs despite equal preparation. Children form “STEM identities” by middle school that shape careers. Primary caregivers, often mothers, are rarely seen as STEM ...
