A cell on its way to becoming skin pigment, blood, or nerve does not make that shift alone. It responds to a dense web of ...

Researchers at Helmholtz Munich, the Technical University of Munich (TUM), the Stowers Institute for Medical Research, and the University of Oxford, have developed an AI-based model that not only ...

Tiny plastic particles, from the micro- to nanoscale, have been routinely detected in water, soil, air, aquatic species, and humans in recent years. As concerns grow over their potential impact on the ...

AI meets cell fate: RegVelo combines RNA velocity and gene regulatory network modeling to predict and simulate how cells transition between developmental states. Breakthrough validation: In zebrafish ...

While humans can regularly replace certain cells, like those in our blood and gut, we cannot naturally regrow most other parts of the body. For example, when the tiny sensory hair cells in our inner ...

Scientists identify specific genes involved in zebrafish sensory hair cell regrowth, providing new insights that could inform future research into hearing loss treatments. While humans can regularly ...
