Oregon scientists used human skin cells to create fertilizable eggs, a step in the quest to develop lab-grown eggs or sperm to one day help people conceive.

A simple cheek swab test could detect children who have arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, according to research presented at the European Society of Cardiology's annual congress in Madrid. Arrhythmogenic ...

For decades, scientists have pushed the limits of microscopy to capture sharper and deeper views of the brain. Traditional light-based systems can map the cortex in detail but struggle to reach deeper ...

Both for research and medical purposes, researchers have spent decades pushing the limits of microscopy to produce ever deeper and sharper images of brain activity, not only in the cortex but also in ...

Human cheek cells under a microscope. The skin on our lips is distinctly different and more complex than other skin on our bodies, and primary lip cells are hard to acquire, which holds back basic ...
