Researchers generate missing cell type in brain “organoids” A cutting-edge laboratory technique that turns human stem cells into brain-like tissue now recapitulates human brain development more accurately than ever, according to a new study from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine.…

CWRU researchers take step closer to uncovering new genetic causes of infertility Scientists have found distinctive portions of genetic material—known as lncRNAs—that help sperm develop. A study published in Biology of Reproduction found male mice lacking a particular lncRNA have low sperm count,…
