Scientists have used human skin cells to create fertilizable eggs capable of producing early embryos, an advance that could expand possibilities for fertility treatment, according to new research. The ...

June 12 (UPI) --Researchers have developed a robotic skin that can give robots a similar feeling to human touch. Researchers from the University of Cambridge and University College London have ...

Growing cells in the laboratory is an art that humans have mastered decades ago. Recreating entire three-dimensional tissues is much more challenging. Researchers are developing a new hydrogel-based ...

Japanese researchers have found that vitamin C can thicken skin by switching on genes that boost skin cell growth, helping reverse age-related thinning. It works by reactivating DNA through a process ...

Scientists have created a human skin map which provides a “recipe” to build skin. The findings could be used to create new hair follicles, and skin transplants for burn victims, researchers say. The ...

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have accomplished a unique proof of concept to treat infertility by turning skin cells into eggs capable of producing early human embryos. The ...
