A tiny capsule made from seaweed and packed with stem cells is being tested as a treatment for heart attack patients. Roughly the thickness of a grain of rice, the capsule is injected into the heart through an incision in the side of the chest. It is filled with up to 30,000 stem cells, which … Read more
A breakthrough in stem cell research allowed scientists to create ‘surrogate sires’ that produce sperm with the genetic traits of a donor animal. So far the new technique has been used to create pigs, goats and cattle with the sole purpose of producing sperm with the DNA of another male. Researchers from Washington State University … Read more
The Sumatran rhinoceros once thrived in rain forests and swamps across India, Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and China. Their numbers have fallen dangerously low in recent decades, though, the result of poaching, habitat loss, and fragmentation – leading the creature being classified as ‘critically endangered.’ Less 80 than survive, according to Save the Rhino, and all … Read more

A stem cell therapy boosted Covid-19 survival rates five-fold for patients hooked up to ventilators, Spanish scientists have claimed. Two out of the 13 patients in the small study died, with the remainder returning from the brink of death after doctors assumed at least 11 of them would succumb to the disease. Overall 70 per … Read more
