In its most basic form, this is the idea of a stem cell. We can say that human cells arise from a process of “differentiation ...

Even a bunch of brain cells on a culture plate can show evidence of learning, but what we didn't realize was that the same is true for other types of human cells, like these kidney-derived cells.

Researchers have created an early map of some of the human body’s estimated 37.2 trillion cells. Each type of cell has a unique role, and knowing what all the cells do can help scientists better ...

Do all our cells have a type of memory, and if so, how might this influence health? We investigate. Design by MNT; Photography by Grant Faint/Getty Images & Ed Reschke/Getty Images.

Scientists with the Human Cell Atlas (HCA), an international research consortium, have profiled 100 million cells from more than 10,000 people around the world.

Regev compared scientific knowledge of cell biology before the Human Cell Atlas initiative with a “15 th century map.” “Now, years later, the resolution of the map is a lot higher,” she said.

In the recent study, which was blinded and temperature-controlled, researchers exposed two types of human skin cells, called fibroblasts and keratinocytes, to 5G electromagnetic waves at 27 and 40 ...

Researchers have created an early map of some of the human body’s estimated 37.2 trillion cells. Each type of cell has a unique role, and knowing what all the cells do can help scientists better ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far surpassing previous efforts that produced only a few dozen. By ...

The current cell map not only charts the many types of human cells, but it also shows the relationships of cells to each other, said Dr. Timothy Chan, a cancer expert at the Cleveland Clinic.
