Believe it or not, scientists are still discovering new forms of stem cells — and these latest examples could shake up how doctors treat a multitude of common injuries. A Stanford-led research team has identified the human skeletal stem cell, helping the group create a “family tree” of cells that can regenerate bones and cartilage. […]
Cells can reprogram themselves after an injury much more radically than people thought, reverting to a stem cell-like state. https://media.wired.com/photos/5b896c8a8494612d7f7dbf2d/master/pass/Regen_1300lede-2880×1620.jpg
Enlarge / Yes, those are real human cells inside a fictional galaxy. Citizen science, which asks the public to help out science projects, has produced some spectacular successes. But finding a way to grab and maintain hold of the public’s attention can be a challenge. That has led to a number of projects that turn […]
For a roguelike, *Dead Cells* is highly addicting. Thank sleek design and appreciation for the past for that. https://media.wired.com/photos/5b74934b5fc74d47846ce508/master/pass/DeadCells-1.jpg
Dead Cells is out on everything tomorrow, and I think it’s one hell of a game. It is one of my favorite releases of 2018 so far, but I still haven’t tried out one of its biggest features: the Twitch integration. So tonight, I want to give you a chance to control parts of my […]
Faced with a navigational challenge, neural networks spontaneously evolved units resembling the brain cells that help living animals track their location. https://media.wired.com/photos/5af608de3733a15a44c5d044/master/pass/BrainMaze_Lede1300wide.jpg
Over the course of their careers, biologists develop a huge mental library of cell structures and their corresponding data. Investigating specific areas of a living cell involves a piecemeal approach, identifying how some parts work with others and spending time on cell labelling. But now, the Allen Institute for Cell Science has launched the first […]

This is not new territory; such questions have long been dealt with in works of fiction, and they have appeared in science in the form of studies […]

It is super contagious and kills tens of thousands of people each year. But until now, we did not even know which cells […]
Fluorescent dyes are being tested to make cancer cells light up so doctors can cut them out and give patients a better shot at survival — an advance that soon may transform how hundreds of thousands of operations are done each year.
