Each year the Australian of the Year award recognizes and celebrates the achievements and contributions of eminent Australians. This year a lead stem cell scientist was recognized.
Results for "stem cells"
Beyond the DNA — comprehensive map of the human epigenome completed
Scientists have established comprehensive maps of the human epigenome, shedding light on how the body regulates which genes are active in which cells.
Anisotropic Scaffold for the Regeneration of Osteochondral Defects
A methacrylated hyaluronic acid scaffold with oriented pores perpendicular to the axial direction by an unidirectional freeze-drying method is reported.
New special issue in Small celebrates 10 years of research at SINANO
A new special issue in Small this month highlights 10 years of fundamental and applied research at SINANO.
Synthetic polymer meshes offer great potential to translate IPSCs
