While George was a kid at heart, Margaret kept the lab running smoothly. The two had spent years searching for a human immortal cell line — cells which could be reproduced infinitely.

Further analysis revealed that mutations, especially the BCOR mutations in the blood-derived lines, can occur after reprogramming, meaning they didn’t originate from the human donors but rather arose ...

The most complex engineering of human cell lines ever has been achieved by scientists ... Dr Raphael Ferreira, co-first author and a postdoctoral researcher in the Church Lab at Harvard Medical School ...

Today, because of work conducted in model systems (yeast, worms, flies), cancer and normal mammalian cell lines, and rodents and higher mammals we have a detailed understanding of the conserved ...

The most complex engineering of human cell lines ever has been achieved by scientists ... co-first author and a postdoctoral researcher in the Church Lab at Harvard Medical School. "Ten years ago, ...

The problem for the lab-leak position is that the U.S. has never had access to the Wuhan lab and has thus been unable to ...

immortalized PSC lines like these may be induced to produce specific tissue types. It would then be possible to generate in the laboratory insulin-producing islet cells to cure diabetes or ...

A government lab finds a novel virus present in cell lines used for therapeutic production that were thought to be virus-free. Kerry served as The Scientist’s news director until 2021. Before joining ...
